Digital Story Time

As I was browsing the internet I found an interesting site, Storyline Online. On it various members of the screen actors guild have videos of them reading children's books. They say that the list of stories is subject to change without notice, which means who knows what may be presented in the future.

If You're interested please head over to the site. I'm sure that if you have children they'd enjoy the unique story time quality of the site. The number of stories available isn't huge, but it's enough that many kids may find a story they'll want to hear over and over again. Not only that, if you find a story that they like, you could work it into a routine, and eventually have them read it to you.
