Our Reading Time

Jude is currently reading Ready Freddy Halloween Fraidy Cat. He has a goal of 3 chapter books and 1 written (dictating to me and I type) review before a reward of 2hrs of a special video game. This is his second book towards that goal. He really likes the Freddy books.
He is always reading in addition to his chapter books. He usually reads 2-3 smaller books (like Seuss or Arthur type books) every morning in bed before we start the day. He also gets Highlights and Ranger Rick which he LOVES!! He reads the stories usually by himself but we do the activities together as a family. We try to get in at least one book a day that I read aloud to the kids. Lainey sometimes will sit on Jude's lap for it but most likely not. The other day she sat beside Jude as he flipped through two of her board books as he pointed to shapes and named them for her. It really held her attention, it was awesome. Jude was so excited about it too! He kept saying "Look Mommy I'm teaching her! Someday she'll get it!". Such a good big brother!
