It is very entertaining for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-always-read-the-words-to-your-childrens-books#post-1300067 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 19:55:12 +0000 Andrea 1300067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always make stuff up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-always-read-the-words-to-your-childrens-books#post-1300021 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 18:34:02 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1300021@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope - I do what you do! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-always-read-the-words-to-your-childrens-books#post-1299956 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 17:21:03 +0000 apis 1299956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have sometimes swapped out lines in softbooks or rhyming books, so "Mister Beaver" becomes "Justin Bieber", etc, etc.</p> <p>Purely to relieve my own boredom, but occasionally it will actually make the book slightly more interesting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-always-read-the-words-to-your-childrens-books#post-1299922 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 17:02:58 +0000 autumnlove 1299922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I make stuff up when she loses interest! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-always-read-the-words-to-your-childrens-books#post-1299920 Tue, 24 Dec 2013 17:01:43 +0000 mrbee 1299920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Olive is two years old, and sometimes she gets bored when I read the actual words to a book to her. So instead, sometimes I'll point to random things and ask her what they are... or ask her simple questions like, "Where's the pumpkin?" She loves it!</p> <p>Do you always read the words to your children's books? </p>
