Reading Nooks
The environment you choose to read in with your KiDDO matters.
Many families have a reading spot - maybe you’re yet to create one though, or maybe you’re tired of the current one?
It’s not so much that it has to be a chair in the living room; it could be the two of you in the car before school, or side by side in a tent set up on the front porch. Just make sure it is free from distractions & comfortable.
Reading nooks come in all forms - park benches, front porches, kitchen stools, bottom steps, & cosy corners.
