I never officially signed up, but my daughter and I found plans were canceled for the day, so we did a bit of reading while we were home.
Reading during read-a-thon with a 5 year old can be daunting, so you have to just go with the flow.
In this case, we read 2 kids books, did some crafts, and I read about 79 pages of my own book.
For her, we read Pizza and Other Stinky Poems and Stuck on Fun, which is also where the fun crafts came from.
I was reading The Forgotten Room by Karen White, Lauren Willig, and Beatriz Williams.
All in all, between the crafts, laundry, and her swim team practice, I’ll count this as our first successful read-a-thon together.
I mostly participated this year on Twitter, which is unusual for me. However, I found it easier than working on the blog while trying to read with my daughter.
How did you do?
