Such a peaceful time. Given the age of your children and your love of reading with them, I wonder if you'd consider reviewing one or more of my picture books for children. (My grandchildren have, of course, played a major role in my development as a children's book writer!) Perhaps you could take a look at my Amazon author page or my website, grandmasbookshelf(dot)net. Then please e-mail me at margaretwelwood(at)gmail(dot)com if you'd be interested in reviewing any of my book(s). <br />Thanks for considering this.Margaret Welwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07133091992116516524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4663490913482277685.post-15539395502445382382017-06-21T12:05:13.140-07:002017-06-21T12:05:13.140-07:00The first time I heard my little granddaughter rea...The first time I heard my little granddaughter read was when she opened a book and said, "Horse.

Even though Daddy does the reading we all sit together, it is something we have done for a long time. It is great family time with no distractions and our sons vocabulary has come on so much. He now gets his favourite books, opens the pages and recites it. This is definitely going to help him with learning to read. Even when he can read himself we intend to continue to read together.Jo - Pickle and Poppethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15867650345004621251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4663490913482277685.post-81374866223399975652017-02-22T07:21:02.825-08:002017-02-22T07:21:02.825-08:00That is such a great thing for a kid at any age to...That is such a great thing for a kid at any age to be able to do. Look at pictures and make up a store or tell the story from memory! So fun!

My 3 year old likes to "read" to my 9 month old. I love it because while he may not be reading the words, he is interpreting and verbalizing what he sees in the pictures. Plus the baby loves it.

It is so special and I love the journeys sometimes real and sometimes fantasy that we all go on. <br />#humpdayhypeSuzy @ In the Lyons Denhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08722062504686559671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4663490913482277685.post-22782027222763727082017-02-20T23:04:01.068-08:002017-02-20T23:04:01.068-08:00Reading is so important with kids - as a teacher a...Reading is so important with kids - as a teacher and now a mum, I can't stress how vital (and fun!) it is for their development. I love the idea of subject-specific content. It is such a great way to engage your child's individual and unique interests and help them become 'experts' on topics they love.
