"We love to read," Jodie Sweetin told Celebrity Baby Scoop. "We have story time every night before bed. It's about 20 minutes and they get to pick three books. Usually it's the same ones. We have Goodnight Moon. But Pajama Time by Sandra Boynton is their favorite. It's really cute and has a song -- it's our favorite cuddle book before bedtime. The baby loves her first-words-books. I'm a big reader myself, so I love reading to the girls. That's a really big thing for me."

You remember Sweetin from her role as Stephanie Tanner, the popular TV sitcom Full House. Sweetin has two daughters, Zoie and Beatrix.

"My family loves reading poems by Shel Silverstein together," Jessica Seinfeld told Celebrity Baby Scoop. "We've read his poems so many times that by now we can all recite them by heart. At bedtime, we read a few together, using different voices for each character. After reading time, we try to give each child about 20 minutes alone time with mom or dad, to talk about issues that have arisen at school or home that day. We always try to end the day with some big laughs."

Jessica Seinfeld is the author of two cookbooks about preparing food for your kids, founder of Baby Buggy, a non-profit that provides essentials for families in need in New York, and wife of comedian Jerry Seinfeld. The couple has three kids -- daughter Sascha and two sons -- Julian and Shepherd.

"There are different favorite books for each of our two girls for bedtime," Samantha Harris told Celebrity Baby Scoop. "Right now, each night, 10-month-old Hillary gets to cuddle before her bottle with Good Night Moon. It was one of my favorites growing up. Josselyn gets to pick two books to read while cuddled up in mommy and daddy's bed with us each night. Before we bring her to her room for lullabies, our favorites come from the Elephant & Piggie series by Mo Willems. I Broke My Trunk and Elephants Cannot Dance are at the top of the list. My husband, Michael, does the elephant's voice and I read the piggie's parts. It cracks up all three of us!"

Harris is a former Dancing with the Stars co-host, former ET correspondent and mother of two daughters.
