[quote=Anonymous]We take our kids to the library most weekends and let them check out whatever they want. The only thing we filter for us mature content. Otherwise, it's all fair game. I think it's really important at this age to let them read for pleasure -- even if we think the content has no educational value or is just total garbage. Our kids basically get far more freedom in books than anything else (for example, screens, which we really monitor for time and content). Also, if you think something other than books is helpful, I highly recommend The Week Junior. Lots of short articles and fun facts. Our kids (3rd and 5th) love it. [/quote]
