Reading nest is a reading nest
A reading nest is signed to show that it is a reading nest (logo).
To show that the cosy spot in the classroom is the reading nest, it should have a corresponding
sign or label.

In Estonian, as in many languages, we can talk about word magic – each word carries a
meaning and a story. The compound noun ‘reading nest’ brings together reading and nest and
the opportunity for a child to see that sign on a daily basis while becoming involved in
exciting literacy-themed games and activities, might create a positive link for life – that
literacy is enjoyable, attractive, and safe.
