Meet Breck<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Hi, I\u2019m Breck, the creator of Bedtime History. As busy parents, bedtime is often the only quality time we get to spend with our kids, so we\u2019ve always tried to make the best of it by reading books, talking, or listening to songs and other stories. Having always loved history and telling my own stories, I started taking some of the true stories I knew about and making them into short, enjoyable tales for my kids. Over time the podcast has grown and today the mission of Bedtime History is to improve the lives of children worldwide by instilling in them a love of history.<\/span><\/p>\n

I grew up in Gilbert, Arizona and my family of five and I currently live in Queen Creek, Arizona. We enjoy learning and playing together and visiting new places. To see some of our travel videos click <\/span>here<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n
