They mainly read my books to me, like Goodnight Moon and whatever else was available. I think that's why I was so into reading from a young age! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-read-books-to-you-when-you-went-to-bed#post-336644 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 19:35:58 +0000 autumnlove 336644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Occasionally but not every night! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-read-books-to-you-when-you-went-to-bed#post-336615 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 19:31:00 +0000 chopsuey 336615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think so..?

My sister and I shared a room - but we didn't read together because we didn't get along... but I would keep the light on and read, or if she turned off the light, I'd shine the flashlight under my covers and read like that.</p> <p>When I shared a room with my little brother we read together.</p> <p>I don't ever remember my parents reading to us, except family devotions and when my mom was teaching me how to read. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-read-books-to-you-when-you-went-to-bed#post-336245 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 18:04:56 +0000 mrsjyw 336245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't remember my parents reading to us, but I remember my brother and I reading before bedtime ALL the TIME!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE reading.</p> <p>Parents are both avid readers themselves and took us to the library/bookstore every week! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-parents-read-books-to-you-when-you-went-to-bed#post-330886 Thu, 11 Oct 2012 18:00:00 +0000 mrbee 330886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't remember my parents reading to me at night! But my brother and I would read using night lights, and sometimes we'd stay up late just talking in our bunk beds.</p> <p>Did your parents read books to you when you went to bed? Do you remember what your parents read, and if you liked it? </p>
