I love that snuggle time and DD doesn't consider it her "night night book" unless it's read to her where she is going to sleep. erinbaderin on "Do you get into bed with the kids when you read books to them?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-into-bed-with-the-kids-when-you-read-books-to-them#post-2633935 Fri, 07 Oct 2016 18:39:18 +0000 erinbaderin 2633935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We sit on the bed - we get our "reading pillows" from the chair and lean them against the wall, then sit on the bed and lean against them. sunny on "Do you get into bed with the kids when you read books to them?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-into-bed-with-the-kids-when-you-read-books-to-them#post-2633934 Fri, 07 Oct 2016 18:37:05 +0000 sunny 2633934@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes we read in her bed. Before she was in her big girl bed, we sat in the rocking chair in her room. catlady on "Do you get into bed with the kids when you read books to them?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-into-bed-with-the-kids-when-you-read-books-to-them#post-2633780 Fri, 07 Oct 2016 14:24:53 +0000 catlady 2633780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ No, she sits in her anywhere chair and we sit on the floor. Then she gets into bed when we're done with our books for the evening. She was in a crib until almost age 3, so there was no way for us to get in and now it's our routine. looch on "Do you get into bed with the kids when you read books to them?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-into-bed-with-the-kids-when-you-read-books-to-them#post-2633773 Fri, 07 Oct 2016 14:19:32 +0000 looch 2633773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ No, we read books in the living room, seated at the sofa. But who am I to talk, I lay with my son to fall asleep. sorrycharlie on "Do you get into bed with the kids when you read books to them?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-into-bed-with-the-kids-when-you-read-books-to-them#post-2633185 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 17:43:06 +0000 sorrycharlie 2633185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My older DD, yes, cause she has a full sized bed.

The kids have a crib and loft bed, so too hard to get into their beds. autumnlove on "Do you get into bed with the kids when you read books to them?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-into-bed-with-the-kids-when-you-read-books-to-them#post-2633174 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 17:29:31 +0000 autumnlove 2633174@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We read on the bedroom floor or in the living room. mrbee on "Do you get into bed with the kids when you read books to them?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-into-bed-with-the-kids-when-you-read-books-to-them#post-2633172 Thu, 06 Oct 2016 17:26:20 +0000 mrbee 2633172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ My kids were having trouble with bedtime once, and so I spoke to a child psychologist friend of mine who recommended that I read to the kids in the living room and then transition to bed. I realized then and there that I love to lie down in my kids' beds and read to them. They have floor beds so it's really easy to get in there, and then the kids snuggle into the crook of my arm (one on each side) and we read a book together. Although these days I've been working a lot of evenings, and so Bee has been doing all the book reading! Still though, I love it - we read some books last night last night on their floor beds, and it was a blast. Do you get into bed with the kids when you read books to them?
