But it has made a great negative impact on the children. Hence the tips what we follow as parents will help you immensely for a happy reading with your babies and toddlers.

Hey there!
Very nice suggestions you give here, I see them useful how to get your small ones to love books. I think other parents would love to see it also, maybe you don't know but there is a community Motherhood where you could get more readers and interaction with other parents. I would give it a try ;)
Also, if you are a book lover, the community Hive Book Club can be interesting for you.
Nice to meet you through this post @a-lass-wonders :)
