I don’t think that electronic books are a substitute for reading to your kids…instead I think it’s another great source to use on top of what you already do. I don’t think kids can get enough reading, and since we can’t read all day, when they are having their “alone” time, this is a great way for them to discover books on their own!

I’m all for any kind of reading: me reading, the computer reading, books on tape, etc.

PS: my school still does RIF

I prefer reading to my kids-but, when I can’t, reading devices like Leapfrog are a good substitute.

I think having a balance of reading to your child and introducing them to learn technology is a good thing!

Reading to my children is such an important experience for us. It not only allows us to spend undivided attention with each other, but it stirs the imagination. Dreams spring from reading, inspiring us to become more than we are. I read a book a day as a child and went on to read my mother’s books as an adolescent. Reading helped me stand out among my peers, earned me the opportunity to help my teachers with bulletin boards and classroom exercises. By the time I reached eight grad it allowed me to take high school courses in world history and english. It made me a better student and a more informed person…that is what I want for my children. That is why I read.

I love reading with my kids…we try to do it every day and they love it too. I think these kind of toys are great because they encourage learning in a fun way!

I think that both are probably beneficial in their own ways!

Reading to your children is one of the best things you can do with them, but I can see using the Tag system when you are a bit busy with something or you want your wee kidlet to be a bit more independant and learn things on their own!

Its ALL good!!

Thanks

This would be a great unit for my nephew who is incredibly curious and asking to learn to read.
