A good book can teach us about things beyond our daily horizons. Reading habit is one of the best habits which you can help your child develop.Reading habits can enrich yourchildren’s life, sharpen their mind, and bring fulfillment. I believe that reading habit is one of those habits in a person’s life will bring great satisfaction, and sense of accomplishment to the reader. It is very important to encourage your child to read, foster your child to love reading and develop a reading habit as early as possible.

Guidelines for Raising a Child who loves to Read

To raise a reader, parents need to help your child build reading skills moment by moment and day to day.

• Read to your child as early as possible you can
A reading habit can not developed overnight, it takes time. To nurture the habit, starting early is a key, since little kids are easier to follow parents’ guidance.

• Set an reading environment with many books
Fill your home with all kinds of books. Make a book collection appropriate for your child’s age. For baby and toddlers, picture books; for pre-k and kindergarteners, first reader series are the good choice. Please refer to Reading List by Grade.
