I loved it when my mum read me stories when I was a child. Sometimes I liked to hear the same story again the next day. I liked stories about dolls and I listened very carefully. When I was a bit older I enjoyed listening to stories about horses.

When I was a kid, my father used reading stories every night before I went to sleep, at that time, my biggest dream was one day I can read the book myself, so since I could read, I mean after I have learnt some words then I began reading myself, that is a habit of mine.
Story is my favorite. In the future, after I have children, I will do the same thing to them, before they go to sleep, I will read stories as my father done to me.

oh YES!!

i love it especially when i'm sitting on that big white throne... and i would keep asking my mum to repeat the same story over and over. And she'll complain about the smell.. haha.

I used to make my mum read Osbourne books. There is this particular book that has little yellow rubber duckies in their collection of bedtime stories...

i think kids love hearing stories...

I loved listening to war stories told to us by my mother and father. They were both in their teens during the 2nd World War and hearing them say about their experiences then is so amazing. They both ran errands for the Japanese soldiers because their houses were very near the garrisons. What i loved most is the part wherein they said that they would jump with joy whenever a Japanese plane crashes down after being hit by an American plane and pretend not to enjoy it when there are Japanese soldiers around. But it was a horrific experience for them and though i enjoy the stories, i don't want to experience them myself.

I didn't really enjoy being read to as I preffered to read the books myself. I was quite a good reader as a child and tended to be ahead of my age group so maybe it was a good thing that I didn't get read to!

My parents never read me a stories at night when I was younger. I guess that's not really common for Filipinos. But I love to watch children stories. Cinderella, Snow White and the sort. They are all fun and exciting to watch. But maybe, when I get my children in the future, I guess, I would love to read them good stories that my parents haven't done to me.=)

Hi there,
Yea i still enjoy it. Some times my mom read me articles from a bengali ( my mother tongue which i dont know to read ) and i enjoy it a lot.
There are a lot of famous bengali wirters who have written some wonderful stories, artickles,poems anecdotes and its a shame i cant read it.
Though iam glad this gives me the oppurtunity to hear stories from my mum. Its all type of stories... detective, adventure, fairy tales etc.
Its those moments which i will cherish all my life.

Cheers,
Tutul

I don't remember my mom read me stories when I was child. Both of my parents were so busy with their works so no time for reading stories for us.

Now that I have my own kids, I do read stories for them sometimes though they don't usually request for it, maybe because they are already exposed to several shows on TV and are tired already, they even sometimes fall asleep while the TV set is still on.
