7 Awesome Story Time YouTube Channels

When my children were young, we all loved story time. I loved cuddling with my little ones and they loved hearing stories of colorful characters and adventures. There is something about reading a story book aloud to children that calms their bodies, yet allows their minds to go wild at the same time. Bedtime books were always a must in our house. We always made time for that. Story time during the day was always welcome, but we didn’t always have time in the busy schedule. I often thought I needed someone to read to the children during the day while I cleaned, worked, and ran errands. Related: lots of literature posts from HomeschoolingToday.com

Story Time YouTube Channels

We all have phones and devices that can contain apps for games and videos for children. While these are nice distractions and some can be very educational, they do not replace reading a book. Little ones need and love books. When children are too young to read, having books read aloud to them is very beneficial for many reasons. Of course nothing can replace cuddling up with a parent or grandparent, to read a book, when that is not possible we can turn to technology and those apps on our devices.
