Yellow bed cassette tape set

I'm looking for a tape set that had 4 tapes with a yellow wooden bed holder from sometime during the early to mid 1990s. It had bedtime stories and lullaby songs. There was also a theme lullaby song it played at the beginning and end of each tape. Some of the stories were:

The Twelve Dancing Princesses
Stone Soup
Orpheus and Euridice
Wee Willie Winkie

Does anyone remember the name of this set? I thought it was called something along the lines of "Sweet Dreams" something but no searches have turned it up. Desperate to find it! Thanks!

A lovely person found my YouTube playlist and emailed me to let me know that they professionally digitized a complete collection that’s available here:

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRe_ErE1lxAJea6Fp9sSxKSOcuY-wfva2

In the description of the playlist there is a link to a zip file with the mp3 files also. We can finally listen to our beloved tapes in their entirety!!!

Wow! So many of us! NEW
by: Anonymous

I have looked for these for years. Found them in a library search, once, a few years ago but moved before I could check them out. I played those tapes endlessly when going to sleep as a child. The last time I played them was when I was 17 for nostalgia reasons as we were losing our home. Now that I have a child of my own, I would like to play them for her. I am thankful for this thread and thankful that someone on here has taken the time to download a few of the tapes to youtube. 😊🥰

I've Made a Youtube Playlist!

I've made a youtube playlist of the three tapes I found. However, I am missing the Fantasy tape, so if anyone has access to it please email me! I want to make the entire collection available to everyone!

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbgbbyJyUaTJboyu4KxkRh26KObNmieo8

I've only created the youtube playlist so far, but I will gladly add them to soundcloud and perhaps even spotify if I can get the whole collection together.

I have been looking forever for these tapes and finally can put a name to them. I am looking for the opening song to play for nostalgic means. I also would love to share them with my children.

So glad to have found you guys!
by: David Morrell

I too have been looking for these for years! My kids absolutely loved them and would not go to sleep without them! I would love to find them again for my grand kids. I sing them "Lie Down Sleepy Head", but have forgotten some of the lyrics and have to make up my own, lol!

The YouTube Playlist is fantastic, but if anyone finds these, I would be forever grateful!

I'd be happy to pay any costs, and might even be able to get them digitized if anyone still has a set. If you find them, please let me know at david.morrell@nycap.rr.com, or call/text me at 518-221-7984.

Thanks, everyone!

Probably found title of cassette tape
by: Anonymous

I've also been looking for them too. So far I found out that it's called Travelin' Stories. When you type in Travelin' Stories or Travelin' Stories cassette tape on Google it shows you this YouTube channel with the name of the cassette and pictures of the cassette also on google. Hopefully we can find them all soon. I'm dying to hear them all again.

Hi everyone~!

After 6 years from my previous post (trelliebellie@gmail.com), I finally found my tapes. Except I am missing my absolute favorite one. I am SO sad. I bought a cassette to MP3 so the audio is never lost.

The stone cutter --
The Little white bone --

FOLKTALES tape -

The Old woman and her pig --
Songs are like butterflies --
The cat and the parrot --
Master of all masters --
How the sun got in the sky.

FAIRY TALES tape -
Fisherman's son --
Twelve dancing princesses --
The Magic dream --
The Moon maiden --
Once upon a time --


Here's what's missing. If someone has it, please message me at cc.mcgregor@outlook.com. That is my favorite tape and I am so bummed I can't find it.

The Gunny wolf --
I like to dream --
The Stars in the sky --

Lie down sleepyhead, time to go to sleep NEW

I sing the "Lie down sleepyhead" song to my baby every night but I cannot for the life of me remember what the name of the tape was. I loved it when I was little. I'm 31 and I listened to it when I was very small, probably about 3 or 4 years old (early 90s). If anyone can at least tell me the name of the tape I would be so grateful

Lie down sleepyhead, it's time to go to sleep;
Warm and safe in your own bed, not another peep.
No more little snacks to eat, no more games to play,
Warm and safe in your own bed, it's time to end the day.

This song has been in my head for like 30 years. I'm trying to find this recording so I can guarantee my spot as favorite aunt. Help! caraaschmidt @ gmail.com

I cannot even believe I found this thread. I've been searching for these tapes for YEARS. My mother didn't remember what they were called, just said "greek mythology kids bedtime tapes" or something. Not a help! I clicked that youtube link down below and I swear I traveled back in time 30+ years. Oh my goodness how wonderful it felt to listen to The Moon Maiden! And then to see a list of all the stories and the ISBN!!! OMG Guys we MUST find the songs too. They went something like "Warm and safe, in your own bed, time to go to sleeeeep!"

this thread has made me so incredibly happy!!!!!
