How can this lazy tudor not WANT to sit down and read with her kids though, what the duck is wrong with her?! Best time of the day for me is reading with my kids every night. My son is also in reception, he is FIVE though, not ONLY FOUR but for years, we have been reading every night, 2 or 3 books, its part of our bedtime routine and he loves it. He reads his school reading book to me too every other night and also reads it to his dad and his grandma/grandad at the weekend, he loves showing how good he is getting and the progress he's making. I still read with my 9 year old too, were working our way through the Harry Potter books together and we both love the time together and watching the film once we've finished the book. Mick wouldn't enjoy anything like that though, spending quality time together. Just stick a tit in their mouth and be done.
