Reading Time

Most kids like to be read to before bed.  But there are many times during the day that I have found are perfect for story time.

Waiting for the bus to come in the morning, we can get a few pages in.

In the bathtub I can read while they get themselves clean.

In a  doctor's office or other waiting room where you are stuck for a while.

Visiting the library.

In the car, if you're not driving!

During lunch or snack time when the kids are quiet for a few minutes.

These little moments add up and encourage kids to be cognitively engaged during down time.
