[quote=Anonymous]I struggle with this. I do thin the herd here and there because our family loves books. But my kids are getting bigger and the Knuffle Bunny just isn't getting read any more. I have a shelf in the basement where I put the books that I LOVE that I know my kids don't really care about. My youngest is 9 and will still read some picture books, though he prefers comics of Wings of Fire most of the time. I have a hard time letting them go because building their library for the first 5 years of their life felt so important. We did SO MUCH reading together before they could read on their own. It was such a great part of their childhoods for me. So I'd just thin what you have. We had a LOT of books, so I'd give away 10-20 here or there. Every 6 months I give my kid's bookshelves a look over and see what can go or be moved to "temp holding" before moving it out of the house. I love books for this is hard for me :)[/quote]
