Much-needed good discussion around children’s books on Radio 4 and so I thought I’d quickly share just a few books that are on our children’s bedside tables at the moment. (most packed away as we are moving). Would love your recommendations too. #ChildrensBooks

[Divya Sehgal @divya_23]

@DrPragyaAgarwal It's funny and engaging with some silly words and font in different colours and sizes. Our 5yo laughs each time we read it to him.

[Divya Sehgal @divya_23]

@DrPragyaAgarwal Lovely recommendations!
We have these currently on rotation.

@tehmina_kazi Past the half way mark now... slow but steady!

@rojospinks A book each, I mean.

[Divya Sehgal @divya_23]

@rojospinks Ten mins reading time before bed every day. Also, depending on how old your child is, weekend 15 minutes of "reading time" together. Even if you don't actually read, they'll get the idea at some point and you might actually read for a whole 15 minutes while they look at the pics.

@FitzcarraldoEds Absolutely well deserved, congrats!

@NellFrizzell Have an almost five year old who comes into our bed whenever he wakes up.. as does the 18 month old as he has a floor bed and has easy access. I was the same growing up with my parents 💓

[Divya Sehgal @divya_23]

@Nasheema_writes Ah thank you! Alas, not a romance writer but always a possibility so will keep this opportunity in mind :)

@DrPragyaAgarwal My 4yo and 1yo have recently recovered, Piriton at night helped greatly + aveeno bath wash and lotion (both have oat oil), Eurax, Virasoothe and Poxclin. I've heard Calamine cream instead of the liquidy lotion is better.
