Today, in the UK we celebrate World Book Day. I saw so many children walking to school in some great outfits. I love the fact that every child will receive a book token today which can be exchanged for a book. This could be the first book that some children may own. Encouraging the next generation to read is so important ❤️💕
For our 'special reading time' our 8 yo and Fire Raptor went with a Magic Tree House comic. It's too bad only 7 of the Magic Tree House books have been made into comics. He is capable of reading chapter books but his confidence isn't quite there yet so he much prefers to read comics. It's safe to say he'd enjoy many of these books because of the nonfiction blend. Hoping he gets into the chapter books eventually for this reason.

Last night was one of our favourite school events of the year! Every year, they host a Snuggle Up and Read evening. Everyone comes to the school in their pajamas, and there are all sorts of literacy focused events throughout the school. It's the most cozy form of chaos, and the kids LOVE it!

Tonight we spent our reading time learning about Mars. Simple kids book that had some neat facts. It was easy for an 8 year old to follow along. The fact he enjoyed learning the most was that the North and South Poles have dry ice.

There was a bookshop on the way home from an appointment. Asked the teenager whether she'd like to go in for a look. She replied "you're going to snob at the English books and I won't find the mangas I'd like to read."

Most of my current 30ish library checkouts... Yeah that's probably about right for my reading ratio these days, my stuff to kids books. #raisingreaders
One of my favourite things to do each evening - as our son calls it - "Our special reading time". We each read our books together for 30 minutes to an hour before bedtime. It's become part of our bedtime routine and it really is special. Tonight he is reading Dog Man while I continue West with Giraffes.

The kids and I went to the library this morning and got a pretty good haul. Even though our boy struggled and disliked reading for the longest time he is now quite the reader! Once reading started clicking for him he started really enjoying books! He now reads every night for at least an hour.
