Time for Bed is a 1993 children's picture book by Mem Fox.

It is about various baby animals getting ready for bed with gentle encouragement from their parents; finally a human mother tucks in her child.

Booklist wrote: "Although the rhyme at times limps rather than lilts, there's a warmth to this that makes the whole more than the sum of its parts.

[1] School Library Journal wrote: "Charming illustrations and comfortable rhymes characterize this appealing bedtime book".
