Reading with my Boys - DK Canada




I love to read. I almost always have a book on the go, and spending an hour ALONE to read is something I try and do a few nights a week.  I really hope that my boys follow me in my love for reading and books as they get older.

I recently was sent a great package of books for the boys from DK Canada.  Included in the pack was a book on Sharks, Frogs, Snakes/Reptiles, Dinosaurs and The Big Books of Things to Make. Mr. J and Mr. K both loved checking out the books - we have read them over and over. Mr. K loved all the pictures and Mr. J really enjoyed learning about the different species and their habitats - he especially loved reading about Sharks (he takes after his dad).

The Big Book of things to Make is definitely going to be a hit. Mr. J and I sat down together to go through it and see what kind of ideas were in it.  I have put it away for now, and plan to bring it out this summer - we will try one of the activities each week.

A big thank you to DK books for sending us this great package! Feel free to check them out on Twitter and Facebook and say hello!
