My oldest is 4 and growing out of naptime. I’m not sure, though, that she’s mature enough to be responsible to take good care of the CDs. Hoping to use audiobooks for her rest time, but having trouble with the logistics of it. :/Thanks,TiffanyReplyYour timing is perfect! Thanks for the list of books. There’s lots of new ones we can try over our Christmas break!ReplyWe’re big fans of Roald Dahl books! We especially like Matilda, James and the Giant Peach, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. They’re all so good. 🙂ReplyOur local library has the Boxcar Children Mysteries. We have listened to EVERY one. My kiddo loves mysteries. We also listened to every Magic Tree House book that our library has on cd.ReplyKeitha – those are great too! I’ll add them to the list!ReplyHi! What website do you buy the audio books? My 4 year son loves the fairytale stories we listen to in the car. Any recommendations would be great! ThanksReplyI have found heaps of audio books at our local library. I put them on my sons MP3 player for long car trips. We love this as he listens to the stories and talks to us about them – even though we have no idea what he is listening too. He also still looks out the window and talks to us about what he is seeing, plus he will fall asleep listening to the stories. I am printing out this list and hoping to find some at the library to add to his collection.ReplyThese are GREAT thanks!!Beth =-)ReplyWe love books on CD!! We listen to them all over town – the kids REQUEST them and my husband and I get time to TALK without interruption. Golden.ReplyI know what you mean!! 🙂 We love them and it cuts down on the fighting in the car too!ReplyWe have just discovered audiobooks as a favorite family thing to do. We just took a vacation in New Hampshire and listened all the way. There are so many great books out there, from the classic kids tales to the Harry Potter collections. We have actually had a lot of fun listening to some of the lesser known authors. All The Little Foxes by Karen Elizabeth Russell is a good example if that. This is a story that flows a close friendship that starts to unravel as a new classmate gets thrown in the mix. My hubby and I actually were laughing just as hard as the kids with this one-just a great, great story.ReplyWhen do you tend to listen to audio books and what do you do while listening to them. Unless it’s bedtime I can’t imagine my kids sitting and just listening!ReplyThis site uses Akismet to reduce spam.
