The post 3 Books Every Parent Should Read to Their Child appeared first on parentztalk.com.
]]>Often when we think of fantasy, books such as Harry Potter and The Lord Of The Rings come to mind, but this truly epic tale from Ursula Le Guin is also a classic of the genre. Expect plenty of magic, mystery, dragons, and adventures. As it’s female-authored, this is a great book to read to young girls, as female characters have more autonomy and independence than in some similar fantasy novels. The book has also been adapted by Studio Ghibli and transformed into a rich, stunningly animated film.
This stunning tale may well have both you and your kid in tears at times, but overall it is a heartwarming, beautiful story about the impact that animals can have on human lives. It also helps your kid to learn a little about life in Victorian times (it was published in 1877). Sewell wrote the book hoping to teach people are animal welfare, but it also has important lessons about treating people well, too.
An instant classic when it was published in 1904, this beautiful tale celebrates the wonders of youth, especially the magic of a child’s imagination. With plenty of action and adventure to keep you and your child engrossed, as well as poignant moments of tenderness, this is a tale that can withstand being told many times.

]]>In addition to the fact that reading improves your intelligence in a multitude of ways, it also teaches you how to focus. Kids these days (and let’s be real, many adults too) have such low attention spans, and it seems as though any type of content longer than 30 seconds is too long for them to consume. Books are the antidote to that. Sitting down with a good book can take hours on end, but it’s incredibly enriching—and your child deserves that.
In addition to how much intellectual good you’ll be doing for your kids, you’ll also bond with them. By reading books to your children, you’ll become the very person who’s introducing to them the amazing world of literature. Considering the fact that being exposed to that is so rare in our modern society, this can be the special thing that you connect over.

]]>However, sometimes it is hard to constantly come up with new bedtime stories or find the ones your kid loves. If you are facing a similar problem, you might want to use a trick from TikToker Topher Harless.
Harless’ son is a big fan of the animated show PAW Patrol and can’t get enough of it. So much so that he wants them included in his bedtime story routine.
Since there are only that many PAW Patrol stories to be told, Harless had to get creative. He started telling his son plots of popular movies as bedtime stories while using PAW Patrol characters as main heroes.
So far, Harless did The Matrix, Star Wars, and The Princess Bride among others. He even came up with a PAW Patrol version of Breaking Bad. And judging by the videos, his son loves each and every one of them.
Check out some of his movie-turned-bedtime stories below and maybe get inspired to do something similar for your kid as well.

]]>Reynolds developed this series for Maximum Effort Channel on Fubo TV and described it as a restful show from an anxious mind. The series is expected to feature legendary stories that we all know and love, but Reynolds’s voice and personality will amplify each one, turning them into classics for a new generation.
“We’re so happy to create a program with the express goal of putting people to sleep. This show has actually been a dream of mine for a while. Storytime is a nighttime staple in our home and is a daily reminder of the power of storytelling,” said Reynolds in a statement about his new series.
He also added that the idea for Bedtime Stories was born the same day as his fourth child, thus confirming he welcomed another baby with Blake Lively. Even though they never officially announced the birth of their fourth child, their fans assumed they became parents again after Lively posted a photo without a baby bump on Super Bowl Sunday back in February.
