Reading to Your Kids in 2008

I was reading to my son from Dr. Seuss's ABC book and he was jumping from the headboard across the bed to the foot board every time I hit the last line for each alphabet rhyme. He had a pretty good rhythm going.

As I was reading it for the third (and last) time he stopped and says to me, "Pause! Don't start it until I come back!"

"This isn't TV," I yelled out to him as he ran into the restroom for a potty break, "This is a book. I'm reading to you."

He comes back from the restroom. "Did you pause it?" he asked.

So go our lessons to prepare him for the Vanguard test in 2009.
