We don't do a set number every night but some nights LO keeps asking for more books. I always tell her I'm reading one last one, and then that is it even if she asks for more. Never affects bedtime.

The only time we don't read all the books is if its past their bedtime or they are just extra tired - either way they end up falling asleep quickly with or without books

This is why we don't do a specific number of books, nor do we do a set time. We might read an entire book, it might be a few pages, sometimes we look at the pictures in a magazine and talk about what we see.

My kids also expect three books, but they're flexible. If they are bad during bedtime, then they can have books taken away from them. If LO chooses a really long book, I make sure he chooses two shorter ones.
