the story project

As we were cleaning our house this weekend I had a brilliant idea for my little friends (aka..my children) and me! To encourage reading and to limit the amount of summer brain drain we are setting the goal to read every children's book in our house (excluding the Christmas ones) by the end of summer break!
I have had a vision in my head for the past several weeks that we are going to enjoy our summer and have quiet, reading time each day. Downtime is what I am looking forward too!
We will review the books that we read each day and post about them on this blog(this gives us some daily motivation)! All 5 of us are on board and excited to explore for the first time or re-explore the books that we have.
We have also signed up for the summer reading program at our local library so we get to earn prizes along the way and my friends each have a chart to mark their progress!
Happy Summer Reading!
