As schools close to most pupils across the country, parents and carers in south west Birmingham and beyond are joining others around the world in a new online challenge.
As a fun and entertaining activity during the COVID-19 outbreak, families are sharing videos of their story time on social media with the hashtag #StoryTimeChallenge.
Charlotte Bull from Rednal posted a video of her fun, sensory reading of Bear Hunt for her twins Dylan and Alex.
She was challenged by her sister, Ellie Taylor from Rubery; a teacher at Chadsgrove School in Bromsgrove.
Ellie started the #StoryTimeChallenge so parents and carers had a resource to take a break and let someone else read for their children.
She posted her own telling of The Gruffalo on Facebook.
