I caught my kids upstairs reading today. They were just playing in Addie’s room, each quietly looking at their own books. They love “reading” – looking at books and pictures. Addie loves her magazine she gets in the mail every month – it’s the Highlights High Five magazine for toddlers. She asks to read it every day before nap and bedtime and will memorize every story. After she’s had it for a couple of weeks, she can usually “read” the magazine from memory to herself. It’s so sweet.
Davis is starting to memorize books as well, which makes me happy to finally see him to start progressing verbally. His favorite book to read lately “The Foot Book” by Dr. Seuss.
(Sorry the pictures are so dark – I still had Addie’s blackout blanket over her window!)
I love it when they read to themselves! Priceless...(and so convenient...lol) Glad Addie is feeling better...and especially glad it didn't spread to anyone else!
