Sleepy Stars is the deliberate opposite of every other screen your child will see today. A deep-blue night sky holds twenty-six stars that twinkle on slow, sleepy cycles; the moon takes ten real minutes to cross the sky; dark hills sleep along the bottom. Touch a star and it glows softly and rings a single long chime that takes several seconds to fade. Every twelve seconds or so, the sky hums one low note to itself, unprompted.
That is all it does, and that is its entire job. Screens before bed usually wind children up; Sleepy Stars was built to wind them down — a transition ritual between playtime and bedtime, the digital equivalent of dimming the lights. Use it as the last game of the evening, let the chimes get slower and sparser as attention drifts, and hand off to the actual bedtime routine.
How to play
- Touch a star — it glows and rings one soft, long chime
- The moon crosses the sky over ten slow minutes
- The sky hums to itself now and then; nothing needs doing
Safe by design
Like every Tiny Paws game, Sleepy Stars runs fullscreen behind a kid-lock: your child can
play and switch games freely but can't accidentally leave. Exiting takes a deliberate grown-up
action: hold both top corners for 2½ seconds on a touch screen, or type
parent on a laptop. There are no ads, no purchases, no accounts, and no
tracking of any kind — read the two-minute privacy page.
