story time
Bedtime reading ritual
Story time is a designated period for reading or telling stories aloud, typically to children: The librarian hosts story time every Saturday morning.
In casual use, story time signals someone is about to share an entertaining or dramatic personal account: Okay everyone, story time—you won't believe what happened at work today.
