We love reading together as much as possible, especially at bed time so I thought it would be a great idea to see what other families are reading together. I hope to get them to share their favourite books they have been reading with their children each week through my link up.
Every evening before bed, my children are encouraged to choose a book off their shelf and we read a few pages each. With our busy schedules of work, school, housework and play dates, it is the one time of day during the week (other than dinner time) that we spend together. Snuggling with a book lets the three of us slow down and recaptures that sweet, cuddly time we enjoyed when they were younger. For me the benefits of reading with your children encourages:
- A stronger relationship with each other
- Academic excellence
- Basic speech skills
- Better communication skills
- Enhanced concentration
- Confidence with speaking in public
The linky
- Please add my badge to your posts
- Link up your book related posts which can be reviews, what you read together or just a single picture of you reading together.
- It will run from Thursday 12am till Wednesday
- Can be old or new and as many as you like
- When you add your link, please make sure they lead to your book related posts and not your blog's homepage. It may be difficult for me to find.
- Share your link up on twitter using #readingtogether and tag me @gemma_stevens so I know to retweet and comment on your post.
- Try and comment on other posts in the link up.
