Giving your kids the gift of love of reading does not come with a dizzying price tag anymore. First, the internet gives you an unlimited variety of children's stories free and not, some even printable and downloadable. Second, there are countless kiddie apps on your mobile phones and tablets and there are great interesting ones even without upgrading to the paid versions. Lastly, gone were the days when the only good books you see in your local bookstore are imported and way too pricey for a family with just a regular budget. Check this out!
This is my daughter's growing collection of Pinoy storybooks. Adarna, Hiyas, Anvil, Lampara, few of the local publishers that brings to Filipinos not only cheap but great reading experience not only to our kids but to us grownups as well. Guess what? For only Php50 and up you'll be taken to fantasy and adventure lands. It comes with colorful and artistic illustrations which could raise to the roof our children's interest and imagination. Some of them also comes with big size edition, perfect for classrooms and gatherings.
My personal favorite is the Winnie the witch collection by Lampara Books.
It's high on fun with very colorful and imaginative graphics and plot.
My daughter loves it as much. I think it works for me and my daughter because it 's not loaded with morals and drama, of course, for preschoolers and toddlers they love it that way. But if you're looking for higher dosage of moral lessons there are plenty of those too. Some are bible stories retold in a way that kids will appreciate, some have bible verses incorporated in them. So there, you have a lot of options. And you can find it anywhere i.e. any of your favorite local bookstores and on online bookshops as well!
Happy storytelling!
