Kids love having their own special spot for reading. Having a favorite place to read helps children build their identity as readers - they can think of themselves as "readers" before they even know the alphabet!
Here are some ideas:
1. Set up a corner with a basket of books, some pillows and some post-its.
2. You could set aside a child-sized rocking chair with a tote-bag full of books resting in it.
3. Keep a basket of books next to your child's bed with a mini-flashlight for reading under the covers.
Use your imagination!

Very nice! I think this is a great idea! I thought about doing this for my kids, but I never got around to it.
ReplyDeleteThey read everywhere in the house. I have dreams of being organized someday.
Hi! I just found you via a comment you left on my Color Wheel project. :) Your site is wonderful. :) Not only can I use it with the little ones I work with, but my new 4 month old I have at home. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the comments everybody! Have fun reading with your tiny readers!
ReplyDeleteThis is very sweet and I agree completely about giving them their own reading spot. We are setting up a few in our home now because one wasn't enough. I love the use of a tent- nice and cosy and private! Thanks for linking up to It's Playtime and hope to see you there again this Thursday!
ReplyDeleteI could use a spot like that for me!
