This
year for our little one’s 6th
birthday, we decided to create a reading nook for her in her bedroom.
Bless her little heart; she fell in love with this “bling-y”,
pink beaded lamp at Target (I believe that Mommy’s love of interior
decorating is starting to rub off on her girls!). For months, every
time we went to Target, she would ask if we could go look at the
lamp!
So, we bought the lamp for her birthday and we also bought a
cute, pink flowered beanbag chair to go in her room. Gramby and
Grandpa bought her a sweet little table – just the right size for
the reading nook! She was very excited to open those three items on
her birthday (in addition to presents from her other grandmothers,
and her great aunt – Merida’s (from Disney’s movie “Brave”)
suction-cup bow and arrow was also a big hit!) and the next day I
quickly set up her reading nook. She had some room between the foot
of her bed and her bedroom wall, and that was where I arranged the
beanbag chair, the little table, the lamp, and a basket of books.
Now she has a cozy little spot to curl up and read books to herself
or to her favorite toys! She started to learn to read last year in
kindergarten and we are happy to do anything we can to encourage a
love of reading! We’re anxious to see her reading skills blossom
this year in first grade!
