By Ayana Herndon and Diva Anwari Updated October 14, 2022 Monkey Business Images/ Shutterstock As a mama, we want to instill a love for books for our kids. Reading books has great benefitsāexpanding their range of vocabulary and helping them to become smarter. But maintaining that love, in the age of technology, where screens instantly catch a kiddo’s attention, can be a challenge. The easiest place to start a love of reading is right in the comfort of your own home. That’s why having a reading nook is essential. Their playtime (and mama quiet time) can both take flight in a tiny corner of the house for some comfy, cozy, reading time.
