5 Tips to Make Evening Storytime More Exciting for Kids
Reading with children exercises their imaginations and contributes to many crucial developmental attributes. It can plant the seed for a lifelong love of reading and makes bedtime easier for everyone involved. Most importantly, it is the definition of quality bonding time between kids and parents. Whether it’s incorporating personalized story books into the reading rotation or adding props to the bedtime ritual, do what you can to make it as fun and exciting as possible.
Include Your Kids in the Process
The evening storytime tradition will virtually always be more fun and
rewarding for kids when they feel like participants in the process
rather than subject to it. Make it a shared, reciprocal experience in
which kids have a say. Let your kids choose the book to read, what PJs
they wear to bed, which stuffed animal they can have with them for the
story and sleep with that night, and so on.
Introduce Your Kids to Personalized Childrens Books
If there is anything kids love more about experiencing a funny,
exciting, magical adventure, it’s being the hero of one. Getting your
kids a personalized childrens book with their name on the cover and
their likeness and details in the story is a surefire way to spark a
whole lot of joy. Be sure to choose a delightful personalized childrens book that emphasizes positive, inspiring values like self-confidence and friendship.
Set the Mood
Make storytime a dynamic, captivating experience based on the book your
kids choose. Setting the appropriate atmosphere can include details
like dimming the lighting for spooky stories and including props. Equip
your little one with a shield or some other talisman for an exciting
adventure story or a silly hat for a funny one. Do funny voices, bad guy
voices, or whatever the story calls for. You don’t even have to be good
at it; your kids will love it anyway.
Make It Interactive and Make It Personal
Kids often prefer being read with over being read at, so make the
experience interactive, personal, and meaningful. Point out funny or
interesting drawings and ask your kids what they think about them.
Highlight teachable and relatable elements by asking your kids what they
would have done in a character’s position and how they think something
made a character feel. Encourage them to consider how situations in the
story relate to or remind them of things they experience in real life.
Plan Ahead to the Next Storytime
Particularly when it’s a personalized one, there is an excellent chance
that you will end up rereading the same book more than once. A lot
more. That makes it worthwhile to plan ahead for the next reading.
Consider elements of the story or the art you can ask about or comment
on the next time you read. Anything that makes the reading more fun and
interesting will improve the experience for all involved.
