My Actifit Report Card: March 22 2019
Did anyone every read the books The Magic Faraway Tree by Enid Byton?
When out walking today this tree reminded me of when my mother used to read us stories before bed time. One of the books was The Magic Faraway Tree with Moon Face, Saucepan man and a heaps of other strange characters. I remember we would say, just 5 minutes more mom, ah please just one more page!
My kids do that before bed time now, ah come on another couple of minutes pleeeese, but it's because they are on their I pads or watching T.V.
Maybe we need to start a better program:)
I actually only became acquainted with those stories when my girls were little. They used to love me reading them at bedtime and, yes, it would be "Just one more chapter!" I never had trouble keeping them off the tv and they didn't get devices or anything like that until recently. I reckon if I got a book they'd be interested in, even now they'd be happy for me to read to them before bed rather than have their electronics and they're nearly 16 and 18!

I think that book is from 1943, a little to early for me, I was born in 1994, most of the books my mother read to me where Disney ones, like Tarzan, Pinocchio, Mogli, etc... Good times, I always fell asleep with my mother reading to me and she normally fell asleep after, damn, I wish I was a young kid again to do it all!
lol oh the joys of youth! our kids watch the books that your mother read. we used to pretend to fall asleep so hopefully we get carried to bed:)
I don't know that tree. Maybe because my mother never really read me stories :(
ahh maybe i'll read you one:)

I love that tree! I don't know that story, my kids (boys) really liked the Goosebump books to be read to them. I read to them almost every night and I know exactly what you are talking about..."aww mom, one more chapter?" And I also know that my grandkids could care less about being read to, they have their "players". They loved it up until about 3 years old, but now its all electronics. It is a shame!
yep time moves on. thanks for stopping in
Nice count again, you are becoming a regular again and even popping up on the chats. That's great. Never heard of that book, here we had Eze Goes To School, Akin The Drummer Boy and a host of others. Plus we also had Tales By Moonlight on TV. Now things have changed.
Yep moving on up. i haven't heard of those books lol. thanks for stopping in
I actually hated literature in early secondary school because we were made to study Shakespeare's books, The Lamb Tales From Shakespeare and the were written in old English. Lol. Thou, thus, wither, ye, ney and the rest and I kept wondering who talks like that any more. The government then change the books to be those of Nigeria & Africa and that stated making sense but by then I had already chosen Geography as a subject over literature. Besides, I was then a science student.

to be or not to be is all i remember of shakespear. People used to say how great it was etc. i think everyone thought it was crap but just said they liked it to look sophisticated. But then what would i know, i sucked at school lol
Men you hit the nail on the head. Do know guys were fluenting their use of Shakespeare quote's and girls were just dying for them. I didn't understand a heck of what they were saying. Lol.

thanks for stopping in marfonso, will do and your welcome:)
Today's children are entertained by other things ... technology!
yep! more fun then boring old books i guess
jajaja, yeah!
Today you share a wonderful topic.
Yes I agree...
I think it is common in all countries before some years our mothers tell stories to us. But now we give children mobiles and tablets and they live in virtual worlds all day... :-)
