In a new poll, parents with young children were asked how long they can read to their kid before they lose interest.

Some people say that the best thing you can do as a parent is read to your kids…but that’s only true if you put a time limit on it. In a new poll, parents with young children were asked how long they can read to their kid before they lose interest. The most popular response was five to 10 minutes, but around 86% of children can handle up to 20 minutes before getting bored out of their minds. Also, when asked how often moms and dads read to their kids, about 77% claimed they read books to them every day.
