World Book Day in pre-school was brilliant fun, we decided to celebrate the importance of bedtime stories. We all came to pre-school in our pyjamas and invited our parents in to join us for the morning. A good bedtime routine and a story before we go to sleep is the best way to wind down for the day and to promote good sleeping habits. Nothing beats a story being read to a child, we know they love to hear the same story again and again but repetition is key to understanding the structure of stories and developing their vocabulary.
