Quick answer
To play the Bedtime Adventures Camera Bundle cards, read a new part of the story each night, then scratch off the matching adventure challenge. Follow the steps below for a smooth, magical bedtime routine.
What you need to get started
The Bedtime Adventures Camera Bundle includes a storybook and 12 scratch-off adventure cards. You'll also need a coin or the edge of a fingernail to scratch off the silver coating—no special tools required. The bundle is designed for one child or a small group, and each session takes about 10–15 minutes.
This game works best when you set aside a consistent bedtime slot. The story follows characters Peter and Margo on a treasure quest, so reading the narrative in order keeps the adventure coherent. If you skip ahead, the challenges may not match the story context.
Common mistakes to avoid
Don't scratch off all the cards at once. The magic comes from revealing one challenge per night, building anticipation for the next story segment. Also, avoid reading the entire story in one sitting—the bundle is meant to stretch over 12 nights.
Another pitfall is forgetting to take a photo after each challenge. The camera aspect is integral to the experience, so have your camera ready to capture the moment. Without the photo, you miss the full interactive element.
Step-by-step instructions
- 1. Read the story segment for the night: Open the storybook to the next unread section. Read it aloud to your child, pausing to build excitement. The story sets up the adventure that the scratch-off card will reveal. If you miss a night, simply pick up from where you left off—no need to repeat a card.
- 2. Scratch off the matching adventure card: Find the card that corresponds to the story segment you just read. Use a coin or your fingernail to gently scratch away the silver coating. Read the challenge aloud together. Don't scratch too hard or you might tear the card. A light, steady pressure works best.
- 3. Complete the challenge and take a photo: Follow the instructions on the card—this could be a silly dance, a treasure hunt, or a quiet activity. After finishing, snap a photo with your camera to capture the memory. Make sure the room is well-lit for the photo. A dark room may result in blurry pictures.
- 4. Store the used card and repeat: Place the scratched-off card back in the bundle or a keepsake box. The next night, start again from step 1 with the next story segment. Continue until all 12 cards are used. You can reuse the cards for a second round by covering the challenge text with a sticky note, but the scratch-off coating won't regenerate.
