Geri's soothes kids to sleep

Sleepy head ... Geri Halliwell reads to tired kids

GERI Halliwell has proved she’s got a great bedside manner.

The Spice Girl settled down to read Little Red Riding Hood to sleepy children for Nick Jr’s Once Upon A Bedtime month.

The mum-of-one is the first celeb to become a storyteller on tonight’s A Bedtime Story with Arnie and Barnie.

Geri said: “I regularly read to my daughter Bluebell - it helps to settle her into a nightly routine, plus improves her imagination, vocabulary and listening skills.

“I especially enjoy inventing new stories and ideas with her.”

Donna Air, Duncan James, Jenny Frost, Jasmine Guinness and Gary Lucy will also tell popular tales to the channel’s young audience.

The new series starts on Monday, November 3 at 7.15pm on Nick Jr.
