Build Your Bookshelf Series: Rise and Shine, Sweet Child
As early childhood educators, we use books every day to teach our kiddos about the world and parents can too! By filling your bookshelf with staples that provide the foundation for love, learning, and daily inspiration you too can cultivate curiosity and joy for the whole family EVERY SINGLE DAY!
This month’s Build Your Bookshelf Series recommendation is… Rise and Shine, Sweet Child by Taylor Curry!
This simple story was written with the purpose of providing a more stress-free morning for parents and an opportunity to reconnect with their kiddos before the busy day begins. Filled with lots of loving language and clever little lessons to help anyone take on the day, this book will be the pep talk that your kiddo (any perhaps the whole family!) needs to start the day FRESH and READY for whatever comes their way!
If the premise of this book makes you dream about the ENDLESS benefits of establishing a healthy morning routine with your family, you’re not alone! The author, Taylor Curry describes, “I felt as though there needed to be more good morning books on bookshelves. I wrote this book to do just that! I was inspired to write a good morning book from my own personal daily morning reading routine with my daughter. In doing my own research, I found a lot of studies explaining that a morning reading routine is extremely beneficial to a child. This is mainly due to the fact that in the mornings, they are fully rested and energized. Their little brains are more alert and ready to absorb information at the beginning of their day. Morning reading routines also promote the overall health and wellness of a child’s physical, mental, social, and emotional well-being.”
When writing the book, she describes her goal as “to set the foundation to give our kids a GOOD morning so that they may have a GOOD day”. If this sound like music to your ears and you’re ready to establish a more peaceful morning routine with your littles, make sure to grab your copy of Rise and Shine, Sweet Child by Taylor Curry on Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
