Discover quick reads for hectic schedules on Nooksy. Enjoy meaningful storytime moments with your child, even when life is busy to keep the magic of reading alive 

These days, it seems like everyone’s schedules are JAM. PACKED…

So trying to find time to sit down and read with your child can be a challenge. But even when we have a packed schedule, with a few small (clever) tweaks and hacks, you don’t have to miss out on the magic of storytime. 

Quick reads are an awesome way to connect with your child and nurture their love of reading, even when we have a hectic schedule.

Picking a quick read...

Short stories, poems, or even picture books are perfect for those moments when you only have a few minutes to spare.

So whether it’s a five-minute bedtime story or a quick read while you’re having breakfast, these shorter, engaging tales can still create lasting memories and boost your child’s literacy skills.

Weave reading into your schedule

One of the best things about quick reads is that they can be easily woven into your daily routine. A story during a lunch break, in the car, or while waiting at the doctor’s office can turn ordinary (oftentimes seemingly boring) moments into an opportunity for learning and bonding.

It’s important to remember (and take to heart): the quality of your reading time with your little ones matters more than the quantity. Even a short, meaningful interaction with a book can have a big impact on your child’s development. So, embrace quick reads and keep the joy of reading alive, no matter how hectic our schedules get.
