Story time is the best time of the day. Whether we're snuggled up on the couch or cozy in our pjs before bed, reading stories with my little ones is one of my favorite things to do. Everyone has a favorite book they remember from their childhood, and every day, parents and kids are discovering new classics of their own. There are many fabulous children's books out there, some of which everyone knows about and others we would have never discovered had my son not simply pulled a random book off a library shelf. I created this blog to share some of these wonderful stories with you. Think of it as a year's worth of the best children's books around, since no day should be without a great story. In the end, I hope we'll all have discovered at least a few new titles that will have made their way onto our list of family favorites. Enjoy!

Story Time Snuggle Pack

Books make some of my favorite baby gifts, both to give and receive.  I wrote once before about why books make the best gifts, and there are a few favorite titles I always seek out when it a new baby is on the way.  I find myself always coming back to these books either because they were favorites of my own children or because they have a certain sentimental value that any mother will love.  Recently, I decided to take my book giving idea a step further and create a "Story Time Snuggle Pack."  One of my dearest friends is expecting her first child in just a few weeks (yay!!), so I wanted to put something together for her little one that was extra special.  Snuggling up and reading stories is one of my favorite things to do with my children, so I figured a book-themed snuggle pack was the perfect thing for a new mom and her little bundle of joy.  I went to Michael's and got one of those cute, sturdy bins (of which I can never seem to have enough). then filled it with some of our favorite books, a cuddly Carter's blanket, and a cozy fleece sleep sack.  I wrapped it all up in a cellophane bag, and voila!  A story time snuggle pack.  B, I hope you and your little one have as much fun with this as I did making it!
