KEEP
GOOD BOOKS, MAGAZINES AND NEWSPAPERS IN THE HOUSE.
Make it easy--both for adults
and children--to find something interesting to read.
ADD
TO YOUR CHILDREN'S ENJOYMENT OF READING BY DISCUSSING EACH
BOOK THEY READ.
It helps them learn to express
themselves. You'll enjoy the conversations, too.
MAKE
SURE YOUR CHILDREN SEE YOU READ FOR AT LEAST 20 MINUTES A DAY.
Remember, you're their primary
role model.
ENCOURAGE
YOUR CHILD TO READ BY DEVELOPING A ROUTINE READING
TIME.
Have your child curl up with
a good book at bedtime or after dinner. They should view the time as a period
to relax and use their imagination.
