Why Bearily Bear?

Why Bearily Bear?

Why did I create Bearily Ever Audio Stories?  I grew up loving classic fairy tales and when my kids were old enough to appreciate them, they were the first stories I turned to. But reading these tales of passive princesses, damsels in distress and torturous witches made me realize how woefully out of sync they were with modern times. So I decided to rewrite and update them and turn them in audio stories.

About the founder, Miral Sattar

I am a working mother of three in NYC. I love reading to my kids and needed a way to make bedtime an enjoyable experience for my family where everyone could settle own and expand their imagination and Bearily Bear Stories was born.

My kids love listening to Bearily Bear Audio Stories. We  take the stories to playdates, museums, and to the park. Bearily Bear Audio Stories also help my 3, 7 and 9-year old sleep through the night!

I have been working in media for over 15 years. I have seen firsthand how stories and digital initiatives can impact children and their imaginations. My writing and I have been featured in TIME, BBC, FORTUNE, Consumer Reports, CNN, NY TIMES, among other media
