Spooky Sweet Dreams: Why Bedtime Reading Matters

Even when bedtime comes with pumpkins and playful frights, reading together before lights out is one of the best gifts you can give your child. Research shows that children who are read to regularly perform better in language, literacy, and even math. Plus, a calm nightly story helps kids wind down, regulate their emotions, and drift off to sleep more easily.

The magic happens when stories become part of a consistent bedtime routine. Night after night, reading helps children build vocabulary, strengthen imagination, and—most importantly—bond with you.

📖 This Halloween season, a perfect pick is Boo! Baa, La La La Board Book. With its festive theme and gentle storytelling, it’s just the right mix of seasonal fun and cozy comfort before bedtime. Pairing a spooky-but-sweet story with a warm blanket and some quiet time makes for memories your child will treasure long after the last jack-o’-lantern has gone dark.
