Are you a new parent? If you have a baby, you’ve probably looked up just about everything you possibly can when it comes to kids — and you know just about everything under the sun that you could know. And you also probably know that there’s not enough hours in the day to do what you do, but what about when it comes to reading? “Why bedtime stories are worth staying up for” explains its importance.

Key Takeaways:

• Many parents tap into the ancient art of storytelling when they have children of their own, passing along folklore, fables, even stories from other generations.
• Some of the best stories borrow inspiration from real life, marrying the familiar with the fantastical.
• Bedtime stories offer parents and children an opportunity to reflect on the day and create a deeper understanding of the world.
