Mothers\u2019 approved remarkable bedtime stories for children<\/h3>\n

\"children<\/p>\n

As a parent, you may be well aware that story time is an essential part of your child\u2019s day. It is not only a powerful way to deepen your bond with your child, it is also an important learning tool. Children\u2019s stories often have moral lessons that offer the opportunity for learning something that will help to strengthen his emotional and social muscles. These lessons are what makes them helpful companions for teaching children. More than anything, story time in the coziness of your arms creates that unforgettable intimate moment that will stay as their treasures forever.<\/p>\n

There are a lot of children\u2019s books readily available. I have done some research on the books that are approved by most mothers and narrowed the list down to five titles. I wonder about which books are included in your own list. Here are some Mom-recommended children\u2019s stories; I would think that you probably know or even have them:<\/p>\n

Where the Wild Things Are<\/em><\/strong> by Maurice Sendak<\/strong><\/p>\n

Written in 1963, Where the Wild Things Are <\/em>is a classic and among the most famous children\u2019s stories of all time. This highly imaginative story features a child named Max, whose mother calls him Wild Thing, and a whole adventure in a place where the wild things are. To May Dixon Weidler of Common Sense Media, this book is about parental love so skillfully written that children would surely be asking to have the story repeatedly read to them. Goodreads gives a 4.22 rating for this book.<\/p>\n

James and the Giant Peach <\/em><\/strong>by Roald Dahl<\/strong><\/p>\n

James and the Giant Peach<\/em>, another children\u2019s book classic, this will transport children into a brand-new world filled with magic and wonder. This wonderful bed-time story by Roald Dahl has been given a 3.99 rating by Goodreads and is approved by a lot of mothers.<\/p>\n

Splat the Cat <\/em><\/strong>by Rob Scotton<\/strong><\/p>\n

Splat the Cat<\/em> is a contemporary children\u2019s tale about a cat who is worried about his first day of school. The vibrant illustration and Splat\u2019s genuine character is well loved by children. The story is fun and simple\u2014definitely an easy read before bed.<\/p>\n

Pinkalicious <\/em><\/strong>by Victoria and Elizabeth Kann<\/strong><\/p>\n

This book has a simple message\u2014more than celebrating everything that is pink, being yourself is the most important thing of all. It is perfect for little girls who are attracted to pink things like the girl in the book, Pinkalicious<\/em>.<\/p>\n

One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish <\/em><\/strong>by Dr. Seuss<\/strong><\/p>\n

What makes this book stand out is that it is actually a reading guide for younglings. It has a simple plot that is focused on making friends and having pet-friends. Luckily, this is often a subject children are excited about.<\/p>\n

Reading children\u2019s stories help your child use his imagination and discover his creativity.\u00a0 We could make a never-ending list about the benefits of story time and about what children will learn, including love in its many forms, empathy, courage, relationships, solving problems, understanding feelings, exploring. Children\u2019s stories teach that dreams can be reached in some way or another, and that it is worth having them. More importantly, story time is a way for them to know that you love them and care about what they feel, like, and dream about. \u00a0Never stop reading to your child! Even when they are old enough to read for themselves, from time to time, they may need a reminder of that special time.\u00a0 A child who reads will always have and discover tools that will open possibilities in the world outside and in the world inside of them!<\/p>\n

I am also a great fan of reading to my children, and I love getting recommendations from other mothers. What are your favorite books to read to your kids? Share them in the comments section. Also follow me on Facebook,\u00a0<\/a>Twitter\u00a0<\/a>and Goodreads<\/a> for more updates.<\/p>\n
