❤️February Reads

February is the perfect month to slow down, snuggle up, and fall in love with reading all over again. 💗
Our February Daily Book Calendar invites families to enjoy one cozy book each day, featuring a thoughtful mix of stories for different ages, interests, and attention spans.

Whether you’re reading at bedtime, during homeschool breaks, or cuddled on the couch with hot cocoa, these books are meant to spark imagination, conversation, and connection. 🐝✨
Read every day—or skip around! There’s no wrong way to enjoy a good book.

🐝💛 A Note from Buzzy B –  

Remember, Hive Parent: reading doesn’t have to be perfect to be powerful. 💕
Some days you’ll read one page, some days three books—and some days you’ll reread an old favorite for the hundredth time. That all counts.

Let February be filled with stories, giggles, questions, and quiet moments together. 📖✨
Thank you for making reading a daily habit in your hive—we’re so happy to be part of your family’s journey.

Happy reading, Hive! 🐝💗
