Just ordered the book list for the kids “Summer Reading”.  My kids read 45 minutes a day, pretty much every day.  But, during the summer months I have them reading a little more, at least 1 hour.  Finding a good book can sometimes be a challenge.  I asked the kids to make a list of their favorite books from this year.

Here are some books my kids REALLY LIKED!

I believe everything published was very logical. But, what about this? what if you wrote a catchier title? I mean, I don’t wish to tell you how to run your website, but what if you added a title that grabbed folk’s attention? I mean Summer Reading List… Spelling program, spelling games and vocabulary program, math facts and more… BigIQKids Blog is kinda plain. You ought to glance at Yahoo’s home page and note how they create post headlines to get people interested. You might add a related video or a pic or two to get people interested about what you’ve written. Just my opinion, it could make your posts a little livelier.
