Yes, we absolutely repeated books! 📚

When I talk about reading 30 books a day, I think it’s important to explain what that actually looked like in our house, especially with babies and toddlers. 👶🏽

For me, the goal was to create consistent opportunities for my kids to be exposed to books and language, without having a rigid idea of what every reading experience needed to look like. 🗣️

And if you’re wondering what we were actually reading, or you’re looking for inspiration for books to buy or check out at the library, I put together a catalog of more than 300 books we’ve had in our home and read to our kids, with age guidance, links, and a reading tracker. ✅

Comment BOOKS and I’ll send you the link. 📚
