There is nothing I love more than snuggling up with my girls and reading a good book. Each night they get to pick two books before going to bed. This is my special time with each of them; a time to unwind, connect and best of all- schnoog (our word for snuggling.) This is so important because not only does it develop a love for reading at an early age, but it breaks the cycle of our crazy day. Now that E is a little older , books are the segue to our nightly “pillow talk” where I really get to see what’s going on in that little noggin. Sadly, during the week, this is the only one-on-one time that we get.
So I thought I’d share with all of you some Salmon family favorites; past and present. Each of these hold a special meaning in my heart. Here are the children’s books that made it onto Kiki’s List:
