Family Storytime with Akseus the Drone

A shared book can turn an ordinary afternoon into a small family tradition. With Akseus The Drone, start with a comfortable seat, a few unhurried minutes and room for your child to notice the illustrations.

Start with the pictures

Before reading, look at the cover together. Ask, “What do you notice?” or “What do you think might happen?” There is no right answer. Let your child point to a character, choose a detail or simply listen.

Read at your family’s pace

You do not need to finish the whole book in one sitting. Pause when something catches your child’s attention. Try a different voice for a character, revisit a favorite page or let your child describe an illustration. A familiar story can be enjoyable on the second or tenth reading, too.

Make space for conversation

After reading, choose one simple question: “Which picture would you like to see again?” or “What would you ask Akseus?” Follow your child’s interests rather than turning storytime into a quiz. You might draw a favorite scene together or look for flowers and insects on your next walk, watching bees from a respectful distance.

Add an optional little snack

If a snack fits your routine, keep it simple. For family members aged 12 months and older, a little honey on toast or stirred into yogurt can be one option. Our Organic Aroeira Honey Snack Bag contains 3 individual sachets; the Family Bag contains 20. Sachets are a convenient way to serve honey at home or take it along.

Do not give honey to children younger than 12 months. Adults should open and serve sachets and dispose of the packaging. Choose foods and portions appropriate for your child.

Keep the ritual easy to repeat

Leave the book somewhere easy to reach and choose a moment that works for your household. A weekend morning, an after-school pause or a quiet afternoon all count. The aim is a pleasant moment together, with enough flexibility to fit real family life.
