Best AI Video Tools
Turn your text into engaging videos that grab attention:
  • Bring your stories to life with Script to Video AI, perfect for turning words into dynamic visual content.
  • Transform articles into shareable clips with Article to Video, making your written content video-ready in minutes.

Step 1: Pick Their Favourite Story

Think of the story that makes your child’s eyes light up—whether it's a fairy tale, an adventure book, or a bedtime classic. If the story is already in a digital format, great! But if it’s in a physical book, no worries—Revid AI makes it easy to convert that too.

How to Convert a Physical Storybook into Text:

  1. Snap a picture of the storybook page using your phone.
  1. Convert the images to PDF using any free app like Small pdf tool.
  1. Use a PDF to Text converter to extract the story’s text. There are many free online tools such as Pdf2Text to help with this.
  1. Copy the text into the next step—now you’re ready to go!
Once you’ve got the story text, you’re ready for the fun part.
For the video above, I used revid script generator to generate a story named “Luna’s Adventure in Wonderland”

Step 2: Upload the Story to Revid AI

  1. Go to your Revid dashboard and click on Create New Video, or go to Ai Movie Maker.
  1. On the next screen, find and select AI Movie Maker (If you are on the dashboard).
  1. You’ll then see an area where you can input the story text—this will be the story you’ve chosen. We now paste the story generated from the script generator.
Once the story is entered, we are ready to move forward with creating the video.

Step 3: Select Voice and Visual Parameters

  1. In this step, you choose the voice you want to use for the story narration, and you can also choose between different visual elements for your video:
      • For the voice, we select Charlotte voice for the narration, a soft spoken female voice
      • AI moving images that bring the scenes of the story to life
      • Stock videos if you prefer pre-made footage.
      • AI Video, which uses Revid AI to create custom visual videos based on the story. (We use this)
      • Screen ratio, we have the option to select between 9:16 (for mobile) and 16:9 ratio (We use 16:9 because we are targeting bigger screens)

Step 4: Select Generational Preset

In this section, you can choose from different preset video styles:
For the video above, I used 3D Render as it works best for children’s videos. You may need to click on Browse Community Presets to add this preset.

Step 5: Add Sound, Generate, Export

In this step, we add a background sound to give our video more life. For the video above, I used Burlesque sound
Once you’ve added all the creative touches, it’s time to see the final result.
Click the "Generate Video" button and watch the magic unfold. After a few seconds, you'll be directed to the editor screen where you can preview your video. If it looks perfect (and it will!), you’re ready to share it!
