Our 11 year old does not read and I find it devastating that she would prefer to watch those horrible "sitcoms" on Nick and Disney than read a good book - I was a bookworm at her age. I've been wondering how to get your kids to be passionate about reading as I want my bun in the oven to be a big reader like I was... (I think I sense a new blog post forming in my brain as I write this!)<br /><br />Also, I prefer real books to ebooks. I tried the Kindle thing but there's nothing better than a good physical book in your hands!!<br /><br />Glad I stumbled across you... nice to "meet" you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6290255598024083177.post-37623788668802714122014-12-10T15:16:54.287-08:002014-12-10T15:16:54.287-08:00Isn't that the cutest thing ever?!?

The original especially is engaging, since it has familiar animals and lots of colors, and it lends itself well to sign language, if you're inclined that way. (Check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozRkZ5aaoCQ&list=UU5LJUN2MIKsTegH9PZnKf_w to learn the signs!) We also love pretty much everything by Sandra Boynton; her drawings are adorable and all babies love rhymes. Try lift-the-flap type books like "Where is Baby's Belly Button?" by Karen Katz; while the words don't particularly enthrall me, it's fun to watch your baby figuring out how that whole flap thing works. My son also loves the Biscuit books by Alyssa Satin Capucilli, although those are admittedly not as much fun for us adults. ;) And if you like poems, pick up a copy of "Read-Aloud Rhymes for the Very Young" edited by Jack Prelutsky.Holly Scuderohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11952942010714094175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6290255598024083177.post-14768624504760982322014-12-09T16:30:06.541-08:002014-12-09T16:30:06.541-08:00I'm such a book worm, too.

Books are a fantastic gift for toddlers because they love reading the same book again and again.

We start when they are REALLY young - I have pictures of reading Dr. Seuss to my son with my mom when he was barely sitting up. Of course we did board books, too, but there's something about those silly rhymes that really made my son happy :)<br />Now that he's older, it's such a treat to share my favorites with him, and to see him sharing his favorites with his little sister!
