Check out these great books to read!

I recently became interested in reading different recipes. I was given a subscription to the magazine: "Taste of Home". I thought this would be something fun to do as a family. Find a recipe that sounds good to everyone and make it. This would involve reading the recipe, organizing the needed ingredients, following directions, and learning some math while using the measuring spoons and cups. You can even sneak in some healthy ingredients. I am sure if your child helps make it, they will think it is delicious!

Here is a wonderful site for you and your child to find and read books from a wonderful storybook collection. https://www.storylineonline.net/
