Mableton Elementary School recently invited students and families to slip on their pajamas for Bedtime Stories Literacy Night to celebrate reading in a cozy, fun-filled way. Some students sported fuzzy slippers for an evening designed to foster a love for reading while promoting literacy in English and Spanish. 

As students and their families arrived, they were greeted with snacks to enjoy before settling in for story hour. The children gathered on the floor, beaming with excitement as they prepared for a magical night of storytelling. The bilingual bedtime story hour featured engaging tales in both English and Spanish, allowing all students to connect with the stories in a meaningful way.

Parents and students alike were all smiles, enjoying the relaxed, intimate atmosphere where reading took center stage. The event helped build excitement around reading and reinforced the importance of nightly reading routines—a key part of the “best practices” emphasized throughout the night.

From the comfy pajamas to the shared joy of listening to bedtime stories, Bedtime Stories Literacy Night successfully brought the Mableton families together and reminded everyone that a great story can be the perfect way to end the day.
