I have been reading anthologies of novels more, so it's 3-4 books in one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-924551 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 19:43:43 +0000 sera_87 924551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaisyMay: I used to read so much more before LO and put my reading on hiatus until the last 2 months or so. I missed it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-924544 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 19:42:42 +0000 MaisyMay 924544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sera_87: I used to read like that, but with LO I can't anymore. There's so much less time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-924538 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 19:41:27 +0000 sera_87 924538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I TRY to read a book a day (roughly ~300 pages, takes ....3?ish hours of straight through) rarely takes me more than 3 days to finish a book.</p> <p>ETA: also, if I'm within 100 pages of finishing I am not to be disturbed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-924526 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 19:39:32 +0000 Ree723 924526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read every day, for a fairly sizable chunk of time, but I couldn't say exactly how long it is. I probably spend almost an hour per day reading to LO (but I don't count that as reading for me) and I also will sit on the floor with her and read my book whilst she plays. I like for her to have independent play time, but I want her to see me doing something educational whilst she's playing, rather than watching tv or playing on the computer. I also read for anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour before bed each night, so all in all, I'd say I get a fair amount of reading in each day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-924449 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 19:25:19 +0000 fancyfunction 924449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read at night - maybe an hour or so? I'm a fairly fast reader but it also depends on how into the book I am. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-924441 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 19:23:49 +0000 heffalump 924441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: Stupid little kid toys. It's aimed for elementary school age. So far we've gotten an eraser, fan, little junk things that I stick in the donate pile. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-924322 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 19:01:28 +0000 jmarionsmith 924322@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i read 30-60 minutes a day, usually before bed.</p> <p>i try to read at least 5 books a day to LO, as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-924321 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 19:01:27 +0000 mrs. 64 924321@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read between 20 minutes and an hour every night. Closer to an hour in the summer. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-924263 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 18:46:44 +0000 yin 924263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO loves to be read books all day long. I only read blogs these days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-924257 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 18:45:29 +0000 MaisyMay 924257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to be able to finish at least 150 -300 pages a day, now I'm lucky to get 50-100. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-924251 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 18:44:24 +0000 sarac 924251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My toddler has just started playing more on her own and letting me hang out and read some during the day. It's been amazing. I've been devouring books. I usually read to her for 15 minutes on a busy day, maybe an hour on a lazy at home day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-924232 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 18:40:24 +0000 Bao 924232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: fun, what kind of prizes do you get?</p> <p>I don't read everyday but I read some of the days out of the week and each day I do read I read 30-50 pages...sometimes up to 80 pages at a time. Not sure how long that is though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-do-you-read-a-day#post-915983 Thu, 11 Jul 2013 18:30:00 +0000 heffalump 915983@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At library story hour you can sign up for a reading program for your LO and for you. They want you to read 20 minutes a day, and if you read a certain amount then you get a price each week. I don't really read anymore except for magazines. But it counts if I read to LO so I still get my prize :) </p>
