I cannot recommend this one enough. "Big Truth For Little Kids". It utilizes the Reformed Catechism for Boys and Girls. Also pair this with "Ask Me Whooo" which are the same catechism questions put to song which makes it really catchy and easy to remember.
As a starting point, I would say keep it simple. Little kids get burnt out if you get bogged down for too long. We do ours over dinner, after we talk about our day. I also use "Short Steps for Long Gains" as a conversation starter.
If you need more resources, or have questions in general, hit me up.
Instead of laying with the 3yo, maybe your wife could sit in a chair nearby (could gradually move further every night if you want her falling asleep independently). You can also try coming in to check on her every 5 min, then 10 min, etc. Start with very short intervals that she can tolerate - even if it's just "Mommy has to go to the bathroom and will be right back" - and praise her for staying in bed. You could even do a sticker chart if she's motivated by that.
Sounds like she also may just not be ready to sleep - either overtired or not tired enough, not able to wind down, etc. Might be worth looking at the rest of the bedtime routine leading up to this and make sure it's as relaxing and low-key as possible. You could try some music or an audiobook/guided meditation (like this or this) while your wife is sitting with her, something that would keep her interest in staying in the room but not be so distracting it keeps her up.

Miss Amy - Do You Know Your Muscles
unfortunately theres no youtube video of it but the song is on itunes/amazon you can preview it first. it's funky as can be and it's educational too! perfect for a 5 year old (and maybe this 21 year old too). i know she does like a whole sort of teaching kids through music thing kinda like the wiggles but i dont know what the rest of her stuff is like.
