The new year

The holidays have come and gone. Winter is half over. Quite honestly, I don't know where the time went. I hope your holidays were good to you.

With the cold weather here, this is a good time to snuggle up with a new book, some hot cocoa and family. I have been enjoying some of the new Young Adult materials as well as some of our new juvenile.

On an educational note, spending time reading with your children helps increase their vocabulary, their enjoyment of reading and helps develop narrative skills. This includes shared reading and being read to.
