Bookish Thoughts: Reading to Kids

My parents were so good about reading to me. I’m not sure if that made me the reader I am today, but it sure did broaden my imagination and give me good one-on-one time with my parents.  I plan on reading to my little guy all the time and he better learn to love it! :)

Today, I happened upon this list of 100 books to read before Kindergarden and for me, it is totally inspirational. I am going to bookmark this, print this, probably hang it on the fridge and mark them off as we go!

There are, of course, the classic classics: Madeline, Goodnight Moon, Frog and Toad… but there are also tons that I’ve never even heard of.  We’ll both have fun with this.

Totally unrelated to books: on the same site, I found this list of 100 things to do before Kindergarden and it is also cute and sweet and gets me excited about this little guy that is getting ready for tons of adventures.  Parents of young kids should check this out for sure.
