They soon discover aliens from the planet Aquari living amongst Mayan natives. When touring a Mayan archeological dig, the girls uncover a mysterious device that hurtles them 2000 years back in time. The duo is off to Mexico for Koolura’s father’s wedding. Koolura, a girl with extraordinary psychic powers, is back again with pal Leila. Here are a few suggested books with links to start you and your kids off: Make sure you ask simple questions that your little one can answer by pointing to pictures. If you have babies and toddlers who can’t read spend those minutes teaching the alphabet, naming numbers, reviewing colors, and of course reading picture books.

Each week you want to build that time to a goal of 20-30 minutes so add minutes each week to family reading time.

You know your kids, so start out with a time that your children will feel successful like ten minutes. This means everyone, including parents, put aside their screens and read a book. To encourage them to improve their reading skills and develop a fondness for books it’s strongly suggested you set some time aside a few times a week for family reading time. March is National Reading Month and it’s up to moms and dads to instill a love of reading in their children.
