Reading with young children is one of the most valuable ways you can spend your time.  Reading as a family creates a calm time and place to spend quality time together.

Reading as a family is something we try to do regularly, usually at the end of the day after all the kids have donned their pajamas and brushed their teeth, when we all gather together around one of our favorite family books.

My kids have had plenty of favorite books through the years, but there are only a few that have stood the test of time for all of us as a family, including hubby and I.

And these are them, our favorite family books:

Good Night, Gorilla by Peggy Rathman

 

Daddy Hug by Tim Warnes

Mama Loves You by Caroline Stutson

The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein

Bears by Ruth Krauss
