Time to read

 
 
February 26th is the day set aside to tell a fairy tale. It is a great opportunity to read to  your kids. Everyone loves a good fairy tale but it is also a great time to set up a reading time for you to read and spend time with your child.
    
        
Tips to reading to your child from Seussville

a comfortable spot to read in - one with plenty of light.
Make it a routine - whether it's right before the breakfast, or right before bed, set aside a special time every day.
Give lots of encouragement! Read the words aloud to your child. Point to the pictures. Say the words together. Laugh with your child.
It's never too early. Reading can be a bonding activity for you and your new baby. Introduce reading in the very beginning, keep books in the nursery and have your books out for baby and toddler to see! See Bright and Early and Nursery collection
The fun continues after the last page! When you finish a story, ask your child about his/her favorite passages, characters, and illustrations.
