✦ MEET THE TRAVELERS ✦

Four little friends who guide every story

Beau, Scout, Willow, and Wren help your child feel each scripture story, modeling courage, curiosity, compassion, and wonder along the way.

Beau

"Bo the Brave"

Courage and faith

Scout

"Scout the Seeker"

"Look and see — what could it be?"

Curiosity and discovery

Willow

"Willow the Warm"

"Warm hugs, warm hearts!"

Compassion and tenderness

Wren

"Wren the Wonderer"

"Pause and ponder — what a wonder!"

Wisdom and reflection

In every story, the Travelers appear as gentle observer-guides, helping your child know how to feel as the scripture unfolds.

✦ OUR STORY ✦

Born from bedtime, and a prayer

My name is Levi Lewis. In February 2026, I was laid off after 13 years. Resume after resume: local jobs, remote jobs, government jobs, anything that could keep us afloat. Meanwhile, at home, my wife and I had a bedtime routine with our three- and five-year-old daughters. But the gospel portion wasn't landing the way I hoped. The girls would squirm. Their eyes would drift.

I wanted something short. Something visual. Something the girls would beg for. Something that would help me share my testimony in a way they could actually feel.

That's when two prayers collided: the search for a business, and the search for a way to reach my daughters. And the answer was the same answer.

Little Scripture Travelers was born.

The Quietest Revolution in Your Child's Bedtime

Children who are read to regularly show language development running 3–6 months ahead. Picture books are 2–3× more likely to expose children to uncommon vocabulary than parent conversation.

Why Lullabies Work (Science Says So)

Children fall asleep 35% faster with 60–80 BPM music. Harvard research shows lullabies trigger oxytocin release and activate multiple brain regions simultaneously.
