I have a five year old snapping at my ankles. I swing between struggling to outwit him, trying to outlast his boundless energy, rolling round the floor in helpless laughter at his crazinesses, dancing in the autumn leaves with him, feeling over the moon at being part of his universe, learning as he learns, marvelling at his wonder as he discovers the world, loving his good humour, his enthusiasm, his love of life.. heck, just loving him. HELP !!!!!!



GRIN !!!

Great forum, Britt !!!

Ah, dear AussiePam, I think yours is a hopeless case!  Nope, nothing to do for loving that little one in your life, haha.  I recently became a grandmother and I know how those people steal our hearts!

I'm with LC - a lot of reading is key for all sorts of reasons.

::nsmile::   That's "Avatar."   You must spell my Greatness correctly.  :bigwink:

Well, the reasons reading can be really important, in my mind, are:

* by them seeing you read to them a lot, it teaches them that listening to the stories of others is a worthwhile activity - that it is a valid source of entertainment and learning

* it accelerates their familiarity with spelling words correctly

* it develops their natural ability to have a great imagination and gets them more interested in creating their own stories, further conditioning them to healthier, more cerebral activities

* it accelerates their ability to pronounce words correctly

* it accelerates their vocabulary

* it's a great way to dish out the love and show them you want to take time out for one-on-one (or one-on-all-your-kids)

So it practices some important reading, writing, and language skills while letting you role model (their biggest way of learning how to be is to mimic those raising them) healthy things as being good ways to spend time.  It also boosts their confidence and imagination, I feel.

- Frank
