  • The Thankful Book by Todd Parr

    What are you 'thankful' for?


    This is a great read-aloud to listen with your kids and introduce them about the concept of being thankful. Not just being thankful for gifts they receive, but more to be thankful of things like: family, the air they breath, animals around them, another day added to their life and many more!


    This is one value, that I believe as a teacher, is very important and valuable for kids to learn at an early age.

  • The Skin You Live in by Michael Tyler

  • The Things I Love About Pets by Trace Moroney

    Do you have pets? Well, I do or our family does. We have Beagles! Do you know Snoopy? He is a beagle.


    Ever since I remember we always had a pet dog. Having a pet is a big responsibility, they are like babies that never grow up. You have to feed them, give them a bath, take them for a walk and clean up after them (when they poop!). But, having a pet like a dog means you have a playmate, a cuddle-buddy when watching a movie and a stress reliever.


    To parents, there even has been a study that exposure to cats and dogs while a child is in utero or just a few months old was associated with roughly a 14% lower risk of them having a food allergy later on in life. This was published in March by PLOS One study.


    Hope you enjoy this read-aloud with your kids and maybe (just maybe) the parents would consider having a pet at home :)

  • When I Talk To God, I Talk About You by Chrissy Metz and Bradley Collins

    When I came across Chrissy and Bradley reading their book on TikTok, I immediately loved the book. It reminded me of my all-time favorite Sandi Patty song, Masterpiece. This story is, in my opinion, one of the best bedtime stories that you can read or have your child listen to before they go to sleep. I hope you enjoy listening to this story with your kid/s as much as I loved reading this. Happy listening!

  • Panda and the Magic Soap by Ida-Sabitsana Corpus

    Each child is unique and it is never too early to let them know that their individuality is what makes them uniquely them. Through this book, parents can teach and process with their kids about learning to be content with who they are, being confident in their own skin and love for themselves.

  • When Lion Feels Shy by Gemma Cary and Krishna Kumar

    It's not easy to explain feelings to children which is why books like this that somehow talks and explains about feelings at a level kids will be able to understand is very helpful.

    To all the parents, I hope this will help you explain what being "shy" means to your kids.

    Happy listening!
