Hello!
Most schools across the country are closed for summer while the others are wrapping up in a week or two. The mercurylevels are soaring and it’s hot, hotter and hottest everywhere!
While most of you might have charted out your summer holiday plans, there might be a few of you who are going to be spending it at home, in leisure, doing things you love, with the kids- travel or no travel- there is nothing better than summer hols!
From waking up late to soaking in every inch of pampering with special recipes and 24*7 snacks, and lemonades and ice-creams, with people around us, my memories of summer holidays as a child are still fresh! And the best part of summer holidays is to spend the hot afternoons crashing on my couch with a favourite book in hand!

And that, my friends, is the theme for this week’s KSP Book Club newsletter. The best children’s books that help bring alive the fondest memories of summer holidays so your kids live it the way you did!

What Smart Moms of Readers Do…
What’s your book budget- for everyone in the family? Do you have a weekly or monthly allowance on how much you are willing to spend on books?
Not all have. And it’s awesome if you have a limit too. It’s just that make sure you encourage your kids to spend more on books and reading than on other stuff- simple.
And if you are looking to ways to save more while not cutting down on your reading time. Here is an awesome offer- only on Kidsstoppress!

Conversation Starter Of The Week
Raising a reader is not something we can do overnight. With just one tip or advice that we pass on to the kids, it doesn’t happen. Atleast in most cases. It is a process that needs to built into our daily lives and requires the parent to try different things with the kids that help raise young readers.
In most of our IG Lives or interviews with authors, we are often asked a question- “My child is not a reader. Will it impact their future?” Though we don’t prefer saying that not reading will “impact” them, but being a reader definitely comes with its host of benefits.
Right from building conffidnce to improving vocabulary and giving a morale boost to the child, there is a lot that reading can do to your kids.
With WEF Reports suggesting that 65% of children entering primary school today will end up working in completely new job types in the future, the Q arises as
to:
- How we are preparing them for the same?
- What are the differentiating skills they will need to have to stand
out from the rest? - The bigger Q is how to raise a reader?
- How to make sure we integrate reading into their daily lifestyle?
Find out in this interesting video we rcently put up on our Instagram. Helps us understand why reading is so important as a lifeskill for our kids.
