10 + Best Kids Books For Bonding And Learning – these children’s stories are an essential part of kids learning, stimulating their imagination and bonding with family members. They are timeless classics that are so fun to read with the kids – great gift ideas! The best memories I have of our boys when they were young were all those hours we spent cuddled on the sofa or in bed at bedtime reading a book together and imagining new worlds and adventures! The story time cuddles, the routine of reading, the beautiful pictures and lovable stories of these books infused me, my husband and our boys with laughter, joy and the bonding love of ‘family’.
Here are 10 plus Kid’s Books that I love and hope you do too!
These teach all about giving, love and adventure. They are great to buy if you’re a new Mom or Dad! Or to give to your grandkids, nieces, nephews and any special tyke in your life!
There’s nothing better than to give the gift of reading!

January 11, 2017 at 2:02 pmThanks for the great list. Grammy is always on the lookout for new stories. My granddaughter loves to be read to and “reads” books back to me. A few of these she doesn’t have yet. Off to the bookstore before my next visit.

January 13, 2017 at 9:49 amHeather, you must read THE BIRTHDAY BOX by Leslie Patricelli. It’s a beautiful little story, At the end of the story I ask my audience “What did the toddler receive for this birthday?”
You will be surprised of the response. I stock up on this little board book, as I like to give it as birthday gifts.
One evening as I was opening a new shipment of the book my 46 yr old boy friend asked about the book. I read the book to him and he really enjoyed the book. He told me no one had EVER read him a bedtime story.
