My boys love the Laura Ingles Wilder Series we are on book 3 I decided this summer to take the advice of the lady who created The Good and the Beautiful to pay my boys to to read because they would rather choose not to or audio books that didn’t have the literary content I wanted… So I paid them .2 cents a page or .5 cents a page and when they finished a series OR about 10 booms if it was a huge series a bonus. This did several thing one it brought my youngest up to doubling his reading speed!!! Two it got them hooked on good chapter books I approve of!!! The plan with their new earnings was to buy expensive Lego sets from Target!!! You know the $50-100 I usually say no to. Not sure if we will do this again next summer but for this summer it sparked joy and we are ready for a new school year… It’s our first year homeschooling and I’m so excited to have found this channel…as I have three boys!

Good plan. After my boys finished the library summer reading, I would give them $15 but it would be put in their savings😉 Reading books and saving up for legos is a great combo❤️
I will need to be adding all of these to our reading list. We have done farmer boy already. I did Mr. Bowdich as a kid in a private school so it was on my list for my kids already. I didn’t appreciate it back then and I figured that was because it was for school and also as a girl in middle school I wasn’t interested in some boy on ships. I did however like hamlet a year or 2 later so, I dunno. But I bet as a boy mom I will probably love it now. 😂
