🌙 A new story every night — personalized to your child

Bedtime stories that quietly raise strong, healthy kids.

Every night, your child becomes the hero of a real-food adventure — a story so good they beg for bedtime, that gently teaches them to love real food, deep sleep, and moving their body. You just read it. We handle the rest.

Sound familiar?

It's 8pm. You're out of stories, and dinner was a battle.

You want to raise healthy, well-rested kids — but the days are long and the ideas run out.

😮‍💨

"Tell me another one…"

You've run out of made-up stories by Tuesday, and you're improvising a limp plot about a dog for the third night running.

🥦

The dinnertime standoff

Getting real food into your kid feels like negotiating with a tiny lawyer who only accepts sugar and screens.

📱

Everything's junk & screens

Most kids' content quietly pushes processed snacks and screen time — the exact opposite of what you want for them.

How it works

Three easy steps to the best bedtime of the day

1

Tell us about your child

Their name, age, and what they love — dinosaurs, race cars, princesses, trains. Takes two minutes.

2

A story arrives each night

Personalized to your child, where they're the hero. On-protocol, age-tuned, about 5–7 minutes to read aloud — and many weeks build night-by-night into one big adventure they'll beg to finish.

3

They fall asleep loving real food

Kids beg for the next one — and start choosing real food, deep sleep, and time outside, all on their own.

What's inside

We wrap your whole day in one healthy rhythm

Each week follows a theme — and the story, activity, and meals all work together to make it stick.

🌙

Nightly stories

A new personalized bedtime story every night, starring your child. Many weeks unfold as one week-long adventure — each night a new chapter kids can't wait to continue — with cozy standalone tales in between. Always calming by design, always ending safe and snug.

☀️

Daytime activities

A simple, screen-free game or craft that reinforces the week's theme — perfect for after school or a rainy afternoon.

🍽️

Kid meal plans

A weekly meal plan & grocery list of real-food, kid-approved meals — every recipe on-protocol, nothing processed.

Every story teaches something real

Adventures that build lifelong healthy habits

One gentle lesson per story — woven into the adventure, never preachy.

Why it's different

The only kids' stories built on real food

We come from the world of functional health — so the food in these stories is the real food we teach our clients to feed their children.

✦ The heroes eat

  • Grass-fed & wild meats — beef, chicken, venison, elk
  • Wild-caught fish, fresh from cold rivers & seas
  • Real vegetables, fruit & berries of every color
  • Fresh water, raw honey & raw dairy

✕ You'll never see

  • Grains, oats or corn
  • Pasteurized dairy
  • Packaged, processed "kid food"
  • Sugary snacks dressed up as treats

In every adventure, your child discovers their Spark — the strength that grows with real food, deep sleep, and time outside. They learn that "Real food, real strong!", and drift off to their nightly words: "Sleep deep, wake strong."

What parents (and kids) are saying

★★★★★

“We just read our stories tonight — and it was the kids reminding me to read them their ‘new stories.’ ‘Real food, real STRONG’ was something we all said together while they flexed. I’m honestly shocked how quickly they’ve caught on — the questions at the end, they’re connecting right back to the stories. The kids are truly loving it!”

— Amanda M., Founding family
A smiling little boy flexing his arm at storytime — Real food, real STRONG!

Our story

From our practice to your family

We're Nick & Heather — a functional lab specialist and herbalist behind Tethered Health. We spend our days helping families heal through real food and real connection.

Little Sparks is that same philosophy, tucked into a bedtime story. No lectures, no fear — just adventures so fun your kids don't realize they're learning to love the things that make them thrive.

Good questions

Everything you're wondering

Yes — your first 7 nights are free. If it's not the best part of your child's day, cancel in one click and pay nothing.

Little Sparks is written for ages 2–9. We automatically tune the vocabulary and story length to your child's age, so it always feels just right.

Straight to your inbox each evening — no app to download, no screen for your child. Open it, read it aloud, and they drift off.

In our practice, we see so many kids do better without gluten, grains, and pasteurized dairy. So the heroes eat the way we teach our clients to eat and to feed their children — real meats, wild fish, vegetables, fruit, raw honey and raw dairy. Nothing processed, ever.

Every week teaches one healthy habit (real food, hydration, deep sleep, movement…) through your child's chosen world. Some weeks are week-long adventures — a quest told in seven chapters, one each night, so kids are excited for tomorrow's story (and tomorrow's bedtime). Other weeks are cozy standalone tales. Either way, every night ends calm, safe, and sleepy — never on a cliffhanger — and finishes with the same goodnight ritual: "Sleep deep, wake strong."

Our Family plan personalizes a separate story for each child — their own name, their own favorite things, their own age level. Up to three kids, each the hero of their own adventure.

Complete is the whole rhythm, done for you. Every week you get: everything in Family (nightly stories for up to 3 kids + the weekly activity pack), plus a weekly kitchen pack — one big make-together recipe tied to the week's theme, two quick "hero snacks," and a done-for-you grocery list — our trusted-brand pantry picks from our own practice, and a printable coloring keepsake of your child's hero for every child, every week. It's the story at night, the play in the day, and the food on the table — all teaching the same healthy habit.

Absolutely. No contracts, no phone calls — cancel in one click from your account whenever you like.
