Baloo's Buddies based at RIA Institute love to read and we have a "Read to a Dog" programme which meets monthly at The Bookcase in Budaiya.
We were very excited that International Read to Me Day was coming up on 19 March and had planned an event at the book store.
Unfortunately due to the current COVID-19 situation we had to switch to Plan B - which turned out to be heaps of fun!
As you can see from our video, Plan B was a dramatisation of my recent story submission to the GDN short story competition. You will be pleased to know that we wont be giving up our day jobs to be actors and the full, >6 minutes, version, will only be posted if we get enough likes.
We invite all homeschoolers to nag their parents, caregivers, and older siblings to read to them tomorrow. Video the experience and post on Instagram with the hashtags #readtome_bh #readingbuddies #baloosbuddies
Huge thanks to Amanda Clerkin for filming us, Christine Gordon for her fabulous narration skills, Sarah Rheeders and son Duncan for getting into the swing of things and the crazy woman in pink for showing one is never too old to be daft!
Happy Reading everyone!
