If you have a young child in the home I'm sure you've heard of Descendants. Peyton loves to dance and sing all the songs around the house.

Well, this year Peyton is a 2nd grader and her only homework is reading 20 minutes. But it's a struggle. She is not crazy about having to read every single night for 20 minutes.
