Do you read bedtime stories to your kids and what are there favorite stories

I used to read to my daughter all the time.. she is almost 8 and now she wants to read to me... she did ask me to read a story tonight.. at 10:30p.. she didn't want to go to bed.. Here was the story "There once was a little girl named Skye, she would not go to bed when her mommy told her. It was about a week before Halloween.. Her mommy told her that if she doesn't go to bed, she will not get to trick or treat" She said alright, alright.. i get your point.. im going to sleep.. but that was a bad story.. LMAO

I used to when they were little. They loved this generic book that taught them about animals ~ I can't recall the title to it though LOL Been along time ~ my boys are 18 & soon-to-b 14.

yes i read to my children all of the time!! my daughter is trying so hard to read( she is only 3) she reads the books upside down and guesses what is on the pages by the pictures it is the cutest thing ever!!!

we read stories but not actually right before she goes to bed...but she likes reading books on Dora The Explorer and others.

ya my grand ma used to do that

I read to my kids everynight. My son is in the first grade and knows how to read pretty good now, so we alternate nights. I read one night and he reads a book me and his sister the next.

No, I normally will talk to my son on bedtime till he fall asleep:)

I don't read bedtime stories to my children anymore. They are grown. When they were small I did. Most of the time I would pre-read the story, so that I could adlib the story and make it more exciting if needed. It makes for a better story. Sometimes I would just tell the story. I would tell them, "Close your eyes and make up the pictures in your head." They were asleep in now time, with no 'fighting'. Sometimes I would take the story and sing it. They liked this too.

I read to my kids all the time! Their favorite right now is "I will never not ever eat a tomato". One fish two fish red fish blue fish will always be one of my favorites.

I don`t have children ... and when I was little my mom didn`t read stories to me... she was just putting a cassete player... and left it on with a story untill I was finally asleep...

I have been reading to Sky since he was in my belly lol..he didnt then and to this day like hansel and grettle..he used to kick the crap out of my tummy..but only when I read that one story and i once read it to him this summer..and he says its not a nice story at all momma...lol..but he loves Thomas the Train stories, and LOVES!! JACK IN THE BEAN STOCK..and 3 little pigs...we play little pigs when we pretend..he will be thge piggy's and I am the wolf and knock on the covers..and he laughs so hard...I dont want him to ever grow up:( lol..

yes my grandma to do it long back !!

I read to my kids at bedtime quite a bit. Their fvorites are goodnight Moon, The Very Hungry Caterpillar. My son loves Curious george, Transformers and any thing about trucks. My 8 year old likes to read to herself most of the time, but sometimes we read her chapter books together. She loves reading books about animals, especially dogs and horses.

I used to read Good Night Moon every night, but when we moved the rocker didn't fit in the baby's room, so I didn't do it anymore. I think when she goes into a toddler bed, I will start again. I try to read to her thoughout the day, but she tends to not sit very still. Her favorites are Sleepy Dog and A Fish Out of Water. She also likes the counting book. She doesn't talk at all yet, but I swear if I say "one" she will say "two, three". Can those count as first words?

naaa... i have no children of my own. greetings. : )

I don't have kids but when I do I'll read the stories my mom read to me. I still have all my childhood books, well half. I got half my brother got half. I used to love anything by Dr. Suess.

I used to, but my daughter used to really fight going to bed at night, so whenever I'd want to read her a story at other times of the day, she'd resist, thinking she'd have to go to sleep after. So, I had to quit doing that.

me too and i will tell good jungle stories to them
