Most libraries and bookstores have a designated kid's story time. We are fortunate that the Barnes & Noble bookstore that is closest has a really talented and engaging man lead the story time/activities for the kiddos. He has puppets and sings songs and dances with his ukulele and the stories he reads are just the right length.
Today, for the first time both Alex and Ben sat and paid attention for the whole show. And, they even wanted to stay and do the art project afterwords (coloring a snail and gluing on his shell). I hesitate going to story times because I know Alex will sit still but Ben usually doesn't. I guess he has finally reached that age where his attention span lasts more than 30 seconds!
