Storytime with Sage's Dad

Rob Wescott

Welcome to Storytime with Sage's Dad, a bedtime podcast where imagination takes flight and dreams begin. Hosted by Rob from Sage Dad Life, this show brings a mix of classic tales reimagined, beloved characters in new adventures, and original stories shaped by the imaginations of children—both my own and my listeners. Each episode is designed to be a soothing, magical journey—whether through rhyming fables, poetic storytelling in iambic pentameter and dactylic hexameter, or gentle bedtime narratives. Before every story, we begin with a calming meditation to help little ones (ages 3-8) wind down and drift into a peaceful sleep. Our sponsor? Love and kindness for all, because every child deserves a story wrapped in warmth and wonder. So snuggle up, take a deep breath, and let’s begin tonight’s adventure.

    Tales of Adventure, Hard Work & Wonder

    Tonight on Storytime with Sage’s Dad, we have 25 minutes of soothing stories, followed by 5 minutes of gentle relaxation to ease little ones into dreamland. 🪣 Jack and Jill – Busy Bees – A fresh take on the classic rhyme, where Jack and Jill learn the value of teamwork and perseverance in a buzzing, busy world. 🍲 The Giant’s Great Soup Surprise – Deep in the hills, a kind-hearted giant stirs up a magical pot of soup—only to find a few unexpected surprises along the way! 🏴‍☠️ Treasure Island Reimagined – Set sail on a thrilling bedtime-friendly adventure, where bravery, friendship, and a map to hidden treasure lead to unforgettable discoveries. After the stories, enjoy five minutes of calming music, designed to gently lull little dreamers into a peaceful night’s rest. So snuggle in, take a deep breath, and let’s set off on tonight’s journey. Sweet dreams! 🌙✨ Do your little dreamers have a story idea as wild as a flying castle made of pancakes or a talking dinosaur who loves to dance? We’d love to hear it! At Storytime with Sage’s Dad, we take the magical, whimsical, and wonderfully abstract ideas that only a child’s imagination can create and weave them into poetic bedtime adventures. If your child has a tale they’d love to share, send their idea—along with their first name, age, and town—to rob@sagedad.life. They might just hear their story come to life in an upcoming episode, with their very own special shout-out! ✨📖🌙
