I usually do bedtime solo for the 2 kids so I doubt I sound super enthusiastic every night. :-p </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-enthusiastic-are-your-bedtime-stories#post-1427888 Sun, 16 Feb 2014 20:26:54 +0000 delight 1427888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@apis: we read the Gruffalo tonight too! DH loves reading her that book. We are quite enthusiastic and share the reading duties each night. I usually do the animal sounds and any singing in books. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-enthusiastic-are-your-bedtime-stories#post-1427882 Sun, 16 Feb 2014 20:21:35 +0000 SleepyMonkey 1427882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha! J is a lucky boy. we aren't nearly as enthusiastic as you guys. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-enthusiastic-are-your-bedtime-stories#post-1427866 Sun, 16 Feb 2014 20:07:42 +0000 apis 1427866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have just put DS down to sleep after reading him The Gruffalo. DW took top billing in her starring roles as "Narrator" and "Little Mouse" while I took the potentially award-winning* supporting roles of "Fox", "Owl", "Snake", and "Gruffalo".</p> <p>(* Our little critic has so far been kind to our emotional, raw, and absorbing portrayals of these characters.)</p> <p>Do you do different voices or accents for different characters in your bedtime books? Do you and your SO ever share reading duties? </p>
