Family Book Club! A Fun Way to Read Together!

Setting up a Family Book Club is a wonderful way to spend time together while encouraging a love of reading. It’s a chance for your family to share ideas, discuss stories, and bond over books. You can choose books that suit everyone’s age and interests, making it a fun experience for the whole family!

 

Directions to Set Up Your Family Book Club

  1. Choose a Book:
    • Gather everyone and brainstorm book options. Consider the ages and interests of your kids. You can pick one book for everyone or let each family member take turns choosing.
  1. Set a Schedule:
    • Decide how often you want to meet (weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly). Pick a day and time that works for everyone.
  1. Create a Cozy Reading Space:
    • Set up a comfortable spot in your home where you can read together and discuss the book. It could be in the living room, a cozy corner, or even outside!
  1. Read Together:
    • Encourage everyone to read the book before your meeting. For younger kids, you can read aloud together or listen to an audiobook.
  1. Discuss the Book:
    • During your meeting, ask questions like:
      • What was your favorite part of the book?
      • Who was your favorite character and why?
      • What did you learn from the story?
    • Encourage everyone to share their thoughts and listen to each other.

 

Setting up a Family Book Club is not just about reading; it’s about creating memories together! Enjoy your reading adventures!
