　　As an adult, I like nothing better than to sit on the beach reading. If I have a satisfying reading time on the beach, I will be happy for many days. However, I'm sad to say it isn't really a thing for children. Most children would rather play in the waves or play with sand. But the truth is that even when children are on vacation, they need reading time that we, adults, look forward to. The method is getting them to sit for 5 or 10 minutes to enjoy the pleasure of reading.

　　Books can probably get wet or filled with sand, They are then pretty much ruined. Some book chapters (章节) may be a little long. Your children may be willing to sit for 10 minutes. However, they may be annoyed at reading if it takes longer than 10 minutes. And if your children are similar to my daughter, they are likely to love reading on the beach.

　　Every time I go to the beach with my daughter, I will bring a magazine for her. Generally, magazines are not too heavy. They can also be thrown away if they get wet. Besides, they provide just the right amount of reading when my daughter is ready to sit under the sun umbrella. Literary (文学的) magazines like Cricket, Spider and Ladybug will allow your children to read wonderful fiction. Discovery magazines like Click, Dig, and Faces have articles on all sorts of topics that will excite and interest your children. And like the short stories in the literary magazines, these articles have the right length (长度) for reading on the beach.

　　So don't leave magazines behind when you pack your bags! Put a magazine or two in the pocket of the bag and when your children need a few minutes to relax, pull it out and get them to sit for 10 minutes or so.
