123 FBGT: Pat the Bunny Traditional Cache

Reading books aloud to children stimulates their imagination and expands their understanding of the world. It helps them develop language and listening skills and prepares them to understand the written word. ... Even after children learn to read by themselves, it's still important for you to read aloud together.

As a parent, teacher, and grandparent – I have found no greater pleasure in life than READING. Reading aloud to students, children, and now grandchildren provides an opportunity to STOP in your busy life and pick up a book and give time to books. The trail’s last 25 books are Isla’s and Teaghan’s favorite books that Nannie and their mother reads to them often.

FBGT: Pat the Bunny
By Dorothy Kunhardt
A sweet, interactive book that encourages children to smell (the flowers), touch (the soft bunny), feel (Daddy's scratchy face) and play (peek-a-boo with Paul). First published in 1940, the book remains a must-read favorite.
