Birth of the United States & the Founding Fathers | A SleepWise Story

Tonight, we drift back to candlelit Philadelphia and the quiet birth of the United States… where history is shaped less by spectacle and more by paper, patience, and long conversation.

In this SleepWise bedtime story, we follow the Founding Fathers as real people in real rooms—George Washington’s restraint and endurance, Thomas Jefferson’s careful language, John Adams’s stubborn clarity, Benjamin Franklin’s warm diplomacy, James Madison’s constitutional design, and Alexander Hamilton’s urgency for systems and permanence.

We gently explore the road from the Continental Congress to the Declaration of Independence, then onward through the long endurance of revolution and the fragile years under the Articles of Confederation.

From there, we return to the closed-window heat of the Constitutional Convention, where compromise becomes craft and “We the People” begins to take shape.

Along the way, we drift through the Federalist Papers, the ratification debates, the Bill of Rights, and the earliest routines of the new republic—elections, courts, laws, and peaceful transfers of power that proved the experiment could outlast the founders themselves.

Calm narration, factual richness, and soft transitions designed to help you unwind… until the world slows, the lights dim, and the story fades to stillness.
