Halcyon Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 My library just started getting in Playaways with children's books on them and the silence is....beautiful. Younger is listening to Mrs Piggle Wiggle and older is listening to unabridged Tom Sawyer. Me? reveling in silence. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue G in PA Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 We love, love, love them. My son used them while reading the book...helped improved his fluuency AND got him to like books. I'm trying to get my ds8 to listen to some now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halcyon Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 i love that there's no fussing with cds. Now, let's just hope neither child loses theirs!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardening momma Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I just checked my library's online catalog, and they have 248 Playaways titles, but none of those are for kids. I just submitted a request for childrens' titles, but I don't know the likelihood of that happening. Our library system lost a little more than 30% of it's funding in the past year because of statewide funding cuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrs.m Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I love playaways! I use them in the car too. No more bickering or acting like goofballs in the car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
