Ever since I was a primary school teacher I have loved reading to children. Once becoming a mother we have enjoyed reading with each of our children picture and story books. Last year when we embarked on homeschooling I learnt more about "read alouds" and reading chapter books to my kids. It has become one of our favourite daily/weekly rhythms and I want to share with you the benefits and joy in reading with your children. It's also a secret weapon in cultivating God's kingdom in your home.
Books I discuss in this episdode:
Swiss Family Robinson - Johann David Wyss
The Chronicles of Narnia (Lion the Witch and the wardrobe) - C.S Lewis
Charlottes Web - EB White
Trumpet of the Swan - EB White
