      I enjoy taking 15 minutes before bedtime and reading my nephew’s favorite book. He gets to choose. It’s quality time and relaxing right before sleepy time.

      Reading takes place each night at the exact same time, after bath time, in a quiet place, and we have family read as often as possible.

      I am super excited to win this for my granddaughter. She is just learning to read and this would be a great tool to help her. I know every night, she has snack and then goes up for a bath. After, they lay on her bed next to her and they read for 30 minutes and then it is lights out.

      My grandson has a neat routine for bed. Bath time or quiet time before getting ready for bed. He gets to choose a few books and then sit on someone’s lap in the rocking chair and read. Sometimes he shares with his infant brother. If someone besides his parents are there, he can invite others to read. He has had 4 adults sitting around on the floor of his bedroom while we take turns reading to him. What a treat and celebrating books and him at the same time!

      Depending on how many parents are home….. If both are, we like to have our oldest read to everyone first. And then we split up and read separately w/ each kiddo. Oldest usually does an I-Spy page as well 🙂

      This giveaway is awesome!
      I am excited about this giveaway because 1 year I bought my friend Sue a Fire tablet for mothers day
      And she accidentally stepped on it, and she was so upset. But thank you for the chance to gift her another one, plus its her birthday on the 20th so it would be nice to surprise her with a new one.

      Good luck to everyone 🙂

      I think it is so important to start reading to children early. A fire tablet would be so nice to have because there are so many different reading options for the kids. Easy access without having to worry about returning books or losing them.

      I love reading bedtime stories with my kids. We finish our baths and snuggle in bed then read until the kids go to sleep. My daughter and I take turns reading, but my son is starting to learn how to read and helps sounds out the words. My kids could definitely benefit from reading on the tablet!

      I would love this chance because I am a 22 yearold mom of 2 under 5 and my 4 yearold is autistic and one way I am able to connect with him is by reading. I planned on buying a tablet of some sort for him to engage himself more with ABCMOUSE as I also have to dedicate time to his 2 yearold sister as well.
