Story Time For Me Review and FREE Giveaway






I had the opportunity to try out Story Time For Me the other day, and was pleasantly surprised with the selection of online storybooks for children. I sat down with Savannah and we read through a handful of book this site had to offer. Our favorites were:




The illustrations and sound quality were excellent, and I loved how the reading pace was set, so that I can read along if needed, and not feel rushed to finish a sentence. Also, the average story is 2 minutes in length, so you can view a few books in one sitting. If you haven’t had an opportunity to try out online storybooks, this is the perfect website to start with. There are 30 free books ready to read, with more being added. And, if you “Like” them on Facebook, you will be entered into a monthly raffle to win a personalized children’s book. What are you waiting for? Click here to receive 2 free books, to try out for yourself today. You are able to choose between 3 series.  Each series is broken down into age appropriate reading level books. So, no more guessing if a book is right for your child's age.
 


Don’t forget to come back and leave a comment letting me know which book is your favorite.  And, if you want to create a special book for that special someone, why not get a personalized book.  Check out their website for more information.  I like how you can incorporate even a baby crawling into the book.







More About Story Time For Me:

Story Time For Me is the creation of Andrew Gitt, a self-made entrepreneur and father of four. As parents of young children, Andrew and his wife were startled by the fact that the average child watches TV four hours per day, and will have witnessed 8,000 murders and 200,000 violent acts by their teens. And the fact that TV viewing, video gaming, and net surfing outplace reading as a “fun” activity among young children is what motivated Andrew to develop an alternative form of children’s entertainment that would also be educational. He assembled a team of children’s literary experts and multi-media specialists; the result was the formation of Story Time For Me.

Our purpose is to provide a unique and fun learning experience for toddlers all the way up through 2nd grade school aged children. We want kids to see that reading can be just as fun (if not more!) than watching TV and playing video games. We believe that by providing superior stories with award winning illustrations, unique animation, and professionally read narration enhanced with music and sound effects, Story Time For Me will bring back the magic in reading.

Our goal is not simply to turn kids onto reading, but to stimulate their imagination and creativity through the unique activities that accompany each story. Our stories were developed to teach wholesome values through positive, moral themes. All the Story Time For Me stories focus on socially relevant and family oriented issues, and the post-story prompts promote discussion between child and parent.

Andrew hopes to bring Story Time For Me into every household, school and library across the globe in all countries where English is spoken or taught.
