How StoryTold helps you improve
your relationship with your child
your relationship with your child
Many parents read bedtime stories to their kids. Children grow up, but their love for fairy tales remains with them for years – and for most, for their whole life. It's been scientifically proven that children understand stories 76% better than mentoring and teachings that convey the same meaning. Even adults would rather listen to a story than pure facts and arguments.
Your personalized story, professionally designed by StoryTold, will help you raise your child, teach him or her your values, give them support when needed, inspire or simply entertain them. Your child will definitely appreciate your effort and honesty.
Storytelling can help you become a bigger part of your child's life, even if you have little time to spend with each other.
Do you doubt your ability to write a cool story?
We at StoryTold went through all these fears and doubts too.
We too understand that writing stories can be a true challenge.

What parents are saying
John
father to 8-year-old
Simply the best writing app for parents on iOS. Covers everything from storytelling to research on parenting, and helps me communicate with my kids on a qualitatively different level. Slick UI/UX, too. Deserves to be on your homescreen.
Sean
father of two boys, 9 and 7
Storytold's Future Stories have been a big help! This feature helps me sit down and put my thoughts to paper right away. I don't have to wait for my kids to grow up to understand how much I love them! Storytold is becoming my go-to app for whenever I feel like writing.
Alex
father of 11-year-old
Before I joined StoryTold, I kept writing my thoughts and stories in a Gmail draft, which I was going to send to my daughter as a gift on her 16th birthday... Importing all my letters to Storytold was a no-brainer. This is my favorite app.
