My grandchildren like nothing better than to listen to a Roald Dahl story on audiobook. There is a great selection of childrens audiobooks now available on the internet and they can be downloaded immediately. I thing that listening to audiobooks is much better for children's education than watching tv or playing computer games. Even better is to have them read the book, which you can borrow from the library, and listen to the audiobook at the same time. This way they learn pronunciation as well.
Here's an example:
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
When Charlie Bucket finds himself the proud winner of a Golden Ticket in a chocolate bar, he knows he has the greatest treat in the world in store for him. Join Charlie on his fantastic world-famous adventures in Willy Wonka's miraculous chocolate factory, where he sees strawberry-juice water pistols, luminous lollipops, a chocolate river, and rainbow drops - and has the time of his life.
