Re: Did you
You'll get one tonight, if you want it..."we have a realistic and costed plan to reduce the national debt". It's a bit far fetched, even for a fairy story, but you'll be sound asleep after you've heard it three times over.

Re: Did you
Been attempting Wind in the Willows with a couple of my Grand kids when I'm babysitting, They might still be a bit young for it but I'm enjoying it.
They do ask for it though when I turn up so maybe I'll be able to read it again when they get a little older and can understand even more? Basically Bedtime stories should be fun for all, if you're bored with it, the chances are so are they.

Re: Did you
Yes - I was read to when young and always read to my son at bedtime. I think the problem is that most kids have a TV in their room now and would rather watch that
