Season 5 - Episode 6: It was January of this year that I just realized, wow, she's reading on her own. So it just kind of surprised us and I think every child is different when they're gonna learn, how to read, but we were lucky that it was a fun surprise. Even if it's just for 10 minutes, even if you just dedicate time every day, even when the baby is still in the womb until. When they're zero years old and all the way until reading together can really foster that habit and culture of reading and make smarter, happier kids, because they can learn about themselves. Lena's been listening to podcasts for a long time, since she was 2. It was a little bit a mix because I'm frugal, uh, and not wanting to buy audio books. And then also practical because if I can't read to them because I do work and if my husband's working, at least they're listening to something and using their imagination just a little bit, instead of watching. So Lena's involved in the podcast. When we interview or talk to the publisher, we ask them what they would want in the show notes, how somebody could actually purchase that book. And then we read the story together and then Lena helps pick out the music. So she listens to the story and listens to what would be a good sound effect, like maybe a door closing. Should I hire her Lena, I'm going to hire you to do our podcast. We're not even that far. We don't do sound effects. Do you want to help me with the, do you want to help me with my podcast?
