It's Reading Time!

-
The purpose of the book club for kids is to ensure that the reading culture is cultivated and imbibed  in kids and teens of all ages. This will help to stimulate their thought processes and also their mental, intellectual, and creative abilities. Also expanding their mental, creative and cultural caacity by the genre of books they will be reading.
A particular book is picked for the week. Children who are members of the book club will read and meet to discuss  the story while they learn a thing or two from the book. The approach is to keep the kids actively engaged during this #Covid-19 virus pandemic lockdown and also beyond this season.

So watch out for the #books we would be suggesting for reading for your kids. If they are toddlers you will have to read to them as parents or guardians. Tweenies and teens can read by themselves and also  organise themselves into  light groups while doing the -#social distancing thing.


Your suggestions and comments are also very welcome. Please leave your comments and suggestions below.

Also in the US and other parts of the world, schools are reopening after the summer holidays. I sincerely hope that this new year brings hope, healing and restoration to the education system all round the globe despite the ongoing fight against the Corona virus pandemic.  This month ha...

Are We Reading To Our Kids?

-
For the #Children’s Day celebrations, I recommended two books titled: The One And Only Bob by Katherine Applegate and Camp Murderface by Josh Berk & Saundra Mitchell, and these books are available on goodreads.com. I believe we had a great time reading to our kids and allowing our middle graders and teenagers engage in leisure but wholesome reading to help the continued process of mental and cognitive growth and development. Par adventure, we haven’t introduced our kids to this reading challenge yet, it’s never too late. This online book club for kids has been designed to allow you and your kids read at your pace and convenience. You can still log onto www.goodreads.com to get the recommended books.  We will still read and discuss these books for this month of July. Please feel free to drop your comments and suggestions below. Your suggestions are welcome to help improve this online book club experience for you and your kids. You can also share this with other parents...
