Children's Bookplates

How often do you read to your child? No matter what your child's age, there is no harm in reading as often as you would like, or as often as your child wishes to hear you read. Success with reading to your child starts with his or her interests.

Determine what makes your child tick, whether it is fire engines and hearing about fire fighters (big pictures help too), or animals (lions, tigers and bears). You will have a more enjoyable time reading aloud and eventually having your child read aloud to you, once he or she knows that the subject will be fascinating and exciting.

After you finish each book, place one of these childrens bookplates on the inside front cover marking the date or maybe donor of the book you read. If you have a girl, consider one of these Sweet Bug - Childrens Bookplates and let your child write their name on the bookplate perhaps.

Whether you use a bookplate with an image on it like the ladybug above, or just one with a set of lines that allows you are your child to write something of importance on it, bookplates can mark the occasion and the book reading memory.

Make it a great day using personalized bookplates with your family!
