Let's talk about a daily reading log.  I'm putting my teacher hat on here….and telling you WHY a simple printable like this is so powerful for kids.  When children are learning to read, there are multiple stages and compontents.  They start by working on phonics and letter awareness, then we add in sight words.  Next? Our kids start to put all the elements together and to read.  In the beginning they'll be reading to DECODE.  Meaning, they're just sounding out words.  But at some point, we start to transition to reading for comprehension…..reading to understand the words on the page (for reference, this article is a great tool to understand the stages of reading).  During each of these stages, reading alone and being read to? Are extremely important and powerful behaviors. Why? We are modeling fluid reading with expression, and….we're reminding our kids that reading can be FUN.  That they can pick books or even magazines for kids that peak their interest.  Our goal? Is to create an environment that values reading for information and reading for fun.

So what's with the daily reading log? The suggestion is that children read or are read aloud to for about 20 minutes a day.  Yes, every day.  I'm sure if your child is in school their teacher has suggested this.  And if they're not….your pediatrician has.  A daily reading log? Is a fun way to keep track.

So this? I'm not giving you more work.  This is just a fun way to track it with your kids.  This isn't our first daily reading log, we've made a couple around different themes.

Daily Reading Log: Love Bug Theme

This love bug themed daily reading log might be my favorite one YET! It comes with a certificate, bookmarks and the printable log itself.  This one has 50 flowers or bugs, and the goal? To color one each time you read a book.  After 50 days, you'll have earned your fancy certificate!

You can read as a family.  You can read those books or chapters aloud to your kids.  They can do independent reading.  It can be a combo of the two.  It can be their school assignments.  Whatever works for you and your household.  One thing to mention, for older kids reading chapter books? I'd color an item a CHAPTER.  That will give you that 20 minutes of reading easily.

✨One of my favorite spots on the Disney Wish? The Bayou Lounge.  It’s stunning.  Perfectly detailed, ornate and plush and feels like……..a place you’d love to sit and sip on something fabulous.  There is live music in the evenings, there are beignets all day, and fancy drinks too.  It’s perfect for….one of my favs.

✨Is she one of your favorites too? (ps swipe for an iconic appearance)

💦 I had to: full Disney Wish Aquamouse report 💦

For research purposes…..since anything that combines Disney and bathing suits is a requirement in my book.

Scroll to see my ride cam and reactions (and a sneak peak at Disney’s first attraction at sea).

Is it scary? No. 
Will kids like it? Yes.
Will adults like it? Yes.
Is it adorable? 100% yes.

Now…..would you ride the Aquamouse? Drop a yes or no in the comments.

<hosted by Disney> I had ONE thing I wanted to do during our day at Epcot before we sail away for the Christening of the Disney Wish tomorrow.  And it lived up to every expectation I had. ⠀
⠀
Seriously, this ride is a magical addition to the parks (and I know WDW people it’s not new to you but it was new to us Disneylanders…..I’m SO glad I didn’t watch ride spoilers beforehand……it was so fun to experience it this way!)⠀
⠀
So, if you had to pick ONE thing to do at Walt Disney World….what would your priority be? Now I have to know (and why is it something Epcot related).⠀
