Reading

Promote Reading


  • Designate a family reading time. Read anything and everything.
  • Connect reading to bedtime. 
  • Let the lights stay on for a while if your children are reading in bed.
  • Take books or audio books on family drives.
  • Read to each other whatever and wherever you can, such as during a meal or while waiting.
  • Encourage children to carry a book with them to read in spare moments. 
  • Don't just read, share understandings and interpretations.
  • The desire to read and the delight in doing so are among the greatest gifts you can give your children.
