Reading time

I love reading! Ever since I was a child, I was always with a book especially during the summertime. It may have lessened while I was growing up because my time was divided by the new technologies that surrounded me and 'coz of many other reasons but it has never stopped my love for reading.  True,  life can get a little hectic  as we grow older, with all the responsibilities we have to fulfill but whenever I get to have the time, reading is one that makes me smile at the end of the day. That is why, I want to impart this to my kids,  "READING is IMPORTANT". So, every month we would make it a point to borrow books from the library. As a mother, I am so thankful for the National Library (http://www.nlb.gov.sg), for their reading programs and for providing a wide variety of books for both kids and adults. We are lucky that we have an unlimited selection and access to all these wonderful books. I am also thankful for the primary schools here for inculcating and encouraging the kids to read. Thru their "reading time" program, my kid is encourage to bring and read a book which made him interested in books and developed his love for reading. 

Yes, it is quite an effort to spend time every day to read to our kids but that effort eventually paid off 'coz we can say that we are proud parents of kids who loves reading.In the blogs to come I will try to share with you the books my kids are reading every month.
