Audio Books

I love using Audio books as a reading tool. You can find audio books in your local library or bookstore that are fun, engaging and provide a fresh perspective on reading. I love reading to my kids but it nice for them to hear the story from someone else. 

Some audio stories are read by the author and some are read by story book readers. Some stories are accompanied with background music and some have cool sounds and noises. Some readers have an animated voice, while some have a "serious" voice. Some stories are funny and animated, while some are full of interesting facts.  Your child can listen to an audio story on speakers or use a headphone. Your child can read along or they can follow along with an adult's guidance. 

What I really like about audio stories is that they can be above grade/age level and still be interesting for your little guy! 

Here we are listening to some cool audio books:

Silent Words Loud and Clear by Pulver & Reed© Everything Family Guide

Get Out of Bed by Robert Munsch© Everything Family Guide

Do you read audiobooks with your kids? Any ideas or tips for using audiobooks with preschoolers?
