One of my favorite things to do is reading. You can learn a lot of new or good stuff while you are reading. It allows you to work and train your brain. Reading is a lot healthier and better than watching the television.
One of my favorite past times is reading to my kids at bedtime. I have done this with my oldest and he now loves reading his books as well as reading right before he goes to bed.
My youngest son like this because he gets to learn new words as well as practice reading the words. This helps his reading at school. Since the beginning of the school year until now, he reading has improved greatly.
My two daughters love the one on one time when I read each of them a book and they can pick their own books out. If you have read my post Opposites then you will understand why this is important to them. They also love the stories and learning the words.
As a father, this is one of the best times of my life. I don’t read to my oldest son anymore and I do miss that. But I have three more kids to read to and that time is almost over. I will miss reading to them.
When was the last time you read to your child? When was the last time you remember being read to? Feel free to leave your answer in the comments and I will respond to the questions you have.

I have two children; one asks me to read to her. The other is entering 8th. Enough said! Best wishes! http://www.rebeccakrusee.com
I still read every night to my 7-year old twins. I read a few times a week to my 10 year old (he often listens to whatever I’m reading to the twins) and my 12 year old reads on his own. Currently we are reading Pinocchio. Have you ever read it? It’s not like the Disney movie at all (no surprise I guess!). Pinocchio is really horrid! He squashes the talking cricket and bites off the paw of a cat (sure the cat was trying to steal his gold but still…)
