with your family

Tonight
Polly discovers a treasure map.
Tomorrow
She helps a lost dragon find its way home.
The world continues. Every family tells it differently.
Born from a real family
bedtime ritual
FableFolk began with stories I made up for my own children when they were little and I was running on empty. They weren't polished, but my children kept asking for another Polly story.
I created FableFolk to help other parents find that same connection, even on the evenings when they do not feel imaginative.

A little reassurance
What is FableFolk?+
FableFolk is a storytelling companion for parents of children aged 3–8. It provides personalised prompts for short, screen-free bedtime stories that parents tell in their own words.
Do I need to be good at making up stories?+
No. FableFolk is specifically designed for parents who feel tired, stuck or “not imaginative enough.”
Is FableFolk screen-free?+
Parents briefly use the app to prepare the story. The screen can then be put away before the storytelling begins.
Will it remember previous stories?+
Yes. It can retain recurring worlds, characters, preferences and story history so each adventure can continue.
Tonight's adventure
starts with you
Five minutes. One magical world. A bedtime ritual they'll remember forever.
