[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. DD is obsessed with my phone & computer, so I try my best not to google it in front of her. I sometimes say I don't know or have her to ask daddy, and then sometimes she completely forgets about to ask me later. Library is a good place, but unfortunately she does not like library at all. She does not read books that I have purchased at home, but teachers say she loves to read books at daycare "with all other kids". I rarely read books to her at home/bedtime because she is never interested. And, I am a terrible storyteller.

Thanks for suggestions of some books above, and I would look into them. And, to answer one PP question above, her daycare emphasize on academic (esp. stem & letter/number), and her report card is 3 pages long telling me where she is at in each categories each semester.

I am so sorry to hear that you are struggling with bedtime reading. I would suggest taking DD along next time you go to the library. Let her pick a few books. When I go, I usually have two or three books that I’ve put on hold ahead of time. That way, we can swoop by the holds shelf, and add my books to the pile. One trick I use to intrigue my DC is to read a book aloud to the baby, a stuffed animal, or even myself. More often than not, he’ll come over to look at the pictures. I’d like to add another vote for kid’s books by National Geographic. They are my favorite NF publisher for children.[/quote]
