We have taken to listening to books now while we travel to from all the various places we run errands.
It has been so nice for our kids to have something other than the radio. They begin conversations over lunch or dinner about our books. They have even had their imaginations sparked with the new characters. They begin to make up their own parts to the story, or even act out the story itself.
At one point, we even listened to Story of the World, which was educational and entertaining.
Now with an iPhone my husband even downloads books from the library using overdrive and audible and listens on his way to work.
The stories have kept the Kids engaged so they are not bored and picking on each other.
We even plan trips because we want to see the places in the books.
