All of the reasons I love Audio Books for kids:
1. They keep my kids entertained during rest time.
2. They have improved my children's story comprehension and vocabulary.
3. We listen in the car - on long trips and around town.
4. They listen to books that are above their reading level.
5. We listen to books that we might not have read on our own.
6. They keep my kids from fighting in the car.
7. Some of them (see below) teach important biblical lessons.
8. They helped us transition from nap time to rest time.
9. When we listen together we can discuss harder topics and discuss the book (there have been plenty that we didn't like too).
10. Our library has a great selection!! Which means f-r-e-e!

We love books on CD!! We listen to them all over town - the kids REQUEST them and my husband and I get time to TALK without interruption. Golden.
I know what you mean!! :) We love them and it cuts down on the fighting in the car too!
Our local library has the Boxcar Children Mysteries. We have listened to EVERY one. My kiddo loves mysteries. We also listened to every Magic Tree House book that our library has on cd.
Keitha - those are great too! I'll add them to the list!
I have found heaps of audio books at our local library. I put them on my sons MP3 player for long car trips. We love this as he listens to the stories and talks to us about them - even though we have no idea what he is listening too. He also still looks out the window and talks to us about what he is seeing, plus he will fall asleep listening to the stories.
I am printing out this list and hoping to find some at the library to add to his collection.
These are GREAT thanks!!
Beth =-)
