Monkey See, Monkey Do

We usually start our school day off with Ethan selecting a book from the book basket and reading for 20 minutes. The books coordinate roughly with the era of history we're studying, and it's a nicer beginning to his day than starting with something like math. The other day I had told him to begin his reading while I was cleaning up the kitchen. I glanced into the living room and found all three of the boys doing their morning reading. Benny is reading Crazy Love by Francis Chan ... yes, he's pretty advanced for a two-year-old!


Alex selected Uncle Remus Stories.



And Ethan was reading G.A. Henty's In Virginia with Lee.
