Short Bedtime Stories for Kindergarteners
A gentle, experience-based bedtime story I love sharing with little ones—simple, calm, and full of meaning.
The Button That Held the Shirt Together
Once there was a tiny button on a child’s shirt.
It was small.
Very small.
No one ever talked about it.
The button often wondered,
“Do I really matter?”
One quiet night, the shirt was placed on a chair.
A few stitches loosened, and the shirt began to open.
The other buttons felt scared.
But the tiny button stayed strong.
It held the shirt together all by itself.
That’s when everyone noticed.
“You were helping us all along,” the shirt said softly.
The button felt warm and happy.
From that day on, it knew something special:
Even small things can do very important jobs.
The child slept peacefully that night.
And the little button did too. 💙
