Kids Freak Out . . .

2/16/2015

Kids freak out when I tell them I've never played a video game in my life. I don't think Sarah has, either. Maybe this is why we're not as stressed out as some of our young readers. 

Take a look at this infographic from the National Reading Campaign, a Toronto-based non-profit organization. They collaborated with CBC Books to study the benefits of reading. The summary is available for free as a pdf file (here is a download link).

Consider this finding: Reading for as little as 6 minutes can reduce stress by 60%. Nice to know on a snowy day here in Missouri. I'm going to bundle up in a bit and take some pics of this beautiful snowfall. It's our first snow of the season!

Guess what is going to be printed out when I get back to the library tomorrow? Thanks for the post.
