This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of EVEREADY®. The opinions and text are all mine.

With two of our children reading now it’s important for us that we keep building those essential reading skills. Reading every night is essential for us to not only build strong reading skills but also to spend time together. Reading, forts, flashlights, music, food and laughter! EVEREADY® and Scholastic are teaming up to bring you downloadable party toolkits with a DIY activity guide so you can host the best party on the block.

To celebrate back to school and reading we decided to shine a light and celebrate.

We made snacks like our own reading power mix station. Add cheese, popcorn and veggies for a cup of fun to enjoy while reading.

Small cups and a fun crescent roll does well with our moon and star themed reading night! Sometimes before bed our girls like to enjoy a snack, these are fun and filling!

Using Reading Under the Covers you can easily find resource to encourage your small readers. You can also plan your own reading pajama party with The Pajama Jam Reading Party Toolkit. YOu can also find some great emergency preparedness resources fro EVERADY on their website.
