Recording our Favorite Books
Last month, I had an idea to make a video of myself reading one of Nicole’s favorite books. I had already read it to her 3 or 4 times that day and she wanted me to read it to her again. So I made a recording of the book and played it for her. She loved it and watched it over and over again. A little more than a week later, I recorded several books with Ila and another one with Nicole. I recorded a few more books today. My current plan is to make a DVD for them to watch and read along with.
Ila has several of her favorite books memorized. These two are my favorites to read with her because I love hearing her cute little voice reciting them. The first one is “A Sick Day For Amos McGeeâ€(sorry for the shaky camera work):
My other favorite is “The Shape of Me and Other Stuffâ€:
I tried to get Nicole to do a similar thing with me, but she just wanted to listen.
what a great idea! Love it! You’re such a creative mom!
