I grew up in a home full of books, newspapers, and magazines. Reading was the family past time, especially on Sundays when I would claim the crook of my father's arm for myself as we read together. My siblings and I are grew up to be book-lovers, and all five of us try to instill the same love for the written word in our children.
I have received numerous inquiries about how to make children love books and reading. As a result, I have already included in The Learning Basket's roster of parenting seminars a talk about reading to one's child - the why's and the how's.
Join Us
On May 25, my bookshop partner Sanne and I will be at the Mom & Me lifestyle bazaar at Rockwell Tent. (Check out the poster at the side bar please.) Not only will our awesome educational toys and pre-loved children's books be there, but we will also be part of the main program.
Do plan to come by after lunch as I will be giving a talk entitled "Childhood Happens Once: Read To Your Child" at 1:45p.m. Let's talk about the importance of reading and some of the effective ways to capture your child's imagination through books.
After the talk, your kids are invited to stay for a musical story time. Sanne and I are still in the planning stage, but I promise you, it's going to be fun!
Mom & Me is the go-to event in May for Mother's Day. The P499 entrance fee will give you access to cooking and baking demonstrations, yoga and zumba sessions, face painting, games, hourly raffle draws, and of course, parenting talks like the one that I am going to give.
