Read, Discuss, Do! exists to help you extend the magic of story time beyond the last page!
Reading with a child is a magical thing. It's fun. It helps create and maintain human connection. It helps young readers build their vocabulary, learn literacy skills, and develop empathy. Imagine taking that magic and supercharging it! You can, and you don't have to be a librarian or reading teacher to do it. All it takes is three simple steps:
Read a book. Talk about the book. Do a simple activity inspired by the book.
Simple. No need to search Pinterest for "story time ideas" and end up lost in a sea of boards, lists and links dedicated to library and classroom story time ideas.
That is why I started Read, Discuss, Do! To offer simple (often book-specific) ideas that can be used by anyone--parents, caregivers, educators, and librarians--to make the most out of reading with kids.
So, take a look around. Hopefully you will find some ideas and inspiration to read, discuss, and do with the young readers in your life.
Happy reading!
