Welcome to Storytime Magic!
Come, escape to a forest filled with new life and ancient wisdom.
Our children’s picture books will make toddlers giggle as they race to spy the characters hidden on each page. The rhythmical flow of the story will relax their tiny nervous systems that crave patterns and predictability to feel safe. Rhythmical reading helps to organize your toddler's scattered physical energy, helping them transition from chaos to calm.
We highly recommend a bedside lamp as dim lighting gives children visual cues that it is time to settle. In a perfect story book nook, a rocking chair would be the cherry on top. Rocking helps lull children as it adds another physical touch to the spell of rhythmical reading.

Wise Words

Sionnach (shun-ukh)

A sacred spiritual greeting. The word Awen is an ancient Welsh, Cornish, and Breton word that translates to “flowing spirit”. When Druids or Celts use the greeting or a blessing, they are in essence wishing that creative energy, divine truth, and the spirit of mother nature flow through you

Translates from Celtic, directly to “the veiled one” and later “night crone” or “night witch”
Caille meaning "veil" and Oíche meaning "night". Used in early Christian times to describe a nun (who wore a literal veil), the term broadened over centuries to mean an old woman, a wise woman, or a crone. Some native species (barn owl) emit hair-raising screeches rather than gentle coos or hoots, and so they became associated with witches, supernatural spirits, and the eerie, transformative darkness of the night forest.
