When you’re at home with your kids, do you find it challenging to find time to read?
We all have different circumstances, and I’m not sure what yours is, but I would encourage you to find a way to fit reading into your day, even if it’s only for 15 minutes.
As a busy stay-at-home parent, here are some suggestions for how to fit in reading time.
- To read in the morning, get up 30 minutes earlier.
- Before going to bed, read for 15 minutes.
- While your children watch a movie, colour, or play, you can read.
- Make a “reading time” for the whole family.
- Request that your husband set up a time for you to read each evening.
- Listen to audiobooks.
