Reading aloud to children

by LearnAsYouGrow on February 5, 2010

The San Francisco Chronicle recently posted on their Baby Blog about reading children’s books aloud.

It is great to see some coverage on the topic, but I think the responses to the post is the best part.

The diverse reading habits of families are interesting and I wonder how some of these traditions and attitudes impact the child’s love of reading (or lack there of).

From “I try to steer away from the ones I hate reading out loud” to “while our daughter was still in utero I read ‘Anne of Green Gables’ to her”  and everything in between.

What about your family? What are/were your reading traditions with your children?
