What parents say

★★★★★

I really wanted to find a free app to read stories that are right for my children. They love it and fall asleep thinking about all these different adventures.

Mainell M.

★★★★★

I needed a bedtime story app so I wouldn’t have to bring a whole library on vacation, and above all so I could stop reading the same paper books a million times! […] My kids especially love the Magician feature!

Aude B.

★★★★★

Being able to access the stories offline is a real plus: they keep going in the car, with no dead time. No more lugging books around in the car and risking forgetting some… it’s a game changer!

Vince

★★★★★

According to her, the best part is being able to create her own stories, and what feels good is that they all end well! In today’s rather turbulent world, it’s great to let them dream a little.

Julie B.

★★★★★

My kids love it! Especially the audio! This app is a real miracle when we’re tired in the evening and telling our little ones a story feels like a mountain to climb.

Am Ly

★★★★★

An app truly designed for little ones and not-so-little ones. The interface is very pretty and makes you want to spend hours listening to the stories. It easily deserves 5 stars, or 5 pine cones as my daughter would say!

Jonathan and Cyril, the founders of The Dream Box

Who are we?

I’m Jonathan, and I’m going to tell you how a 31-year-old from Alsace came up with the idea for The Dream Box, a one-of-a-kind story app for children.

It all started when I looked after my niece Mathilde, age 5, during her school break. The big suitcase was packed, the toys too, but of course, something got left behind… Maybe you’ve guessed it? Her favorite books were still on her bedside table. Disaster! We’d have to find another way to keep up the bedtime story ritual…

That’s where my longtime partner in crime, Cyril, comes in. I told him about my misadventures the next day. A light bulb went on, and together we came up with the first ideas for The Dream Box, the mobile app with the power to replace books.

A beautiful, easy-to-use app, free and ad-free, that lets you not only read and listen to stories, but also create your very own tailor-made stories! It’s completely magical.

Today, media like the newspaper L’Alsace and Radio France are starting to talk about us. And let’s be honest right away: we’re super proud and fired up for what’s next. Follow us on social media so you don’t miss a thing!
