How to Have a Reading Party

Sharing is caring!

We are so ready for Fall here at our house we can hardly contain ourselves. We have officially started a countdown.

We’ve stocked our bookshelves with books all about the seasons changing, pumpkins and apples and all things Fall.

What better than to have a pajama reading party? You can too!

Let me show you what we did.

Everyone put on their pajamas. Even the 13 year old. (He was actually pretty excited to do this!)

We popped a camo tent in the living room and thew some comfy blankets in there.

We gathered up our favorite books like Red Leaf, Yellow Leaf, Pumpkin Circle, Going on a Leaf Hunt and more!

We made some easy and mess-free snacks like this Chex Mix. We mixed Chocolate Chex, Rice Chex and pretzel sticks in a large bowl.

We also filled a bowl with gummy worms. Sour ones of course.

It would not be a book party without some book worms, right?

And we grabbed our EVEREADY® flashlight and hopped into the tent.

They had so much fun and never left the living room.

Anthony read to his brothers. They love wearing pajamas in the middle of the day (ok, we are homeschoolers…. pajamas in the middle of the day happens!).

The snacks were yummy and everyone laughed and had a blast.

Any opportunity to play with flashlights is always a great time at our house.

My husband is a gadget man and literally owns no less than 20-25 flashlights. He uses them for work and our kids use them for play. All the time!
