Great Reads

Here are some of the best posts I've come across this week.

Dear Miss Poki Bear, at 5 Minutes for Parenting, is about a Mom writing monthly letters to her children. I have written letters to our girls before, letters that I am saving for them to read when they get older. This article reminded me that I need to do that more often, that we might remember the things they are going through at these ages.


On Monday, I had posted about working with our children on their manners when we're out shopping. This piece about Public Behavior from Chronicles of a Babywise Mom is an excellent read; it talks about training and practicing with our children prior to going out in public and how that helps create a more pleasant outing for all.


Finally, I am always looking for recommendations of good books to read with our girls. Life as Mom reviews Three Great Read Aloud Handbooks that are full of suggestions for good books.
