Few more tips on sharing books with our children to wrap up Read Across America week! 📚

When reading to your child, pick a comfy spot!

Pick the same spot, same time for 14 days and you'll be in the habit of reading every day/night!

Tell us below where you plan on reading to your child, in the comments! Example: Bedtime, snuggled up in bed together or on the couch after bath time!
