The reading habit

want to upset a man who writes my cheque pay.

But this crisis of hating to read is also growing fast with our children. It is very important that we give our children lots of opportunit­ies to read aloud. We should inspire our young readers to practice every day! We should always try tips that offer some fun that can help our children become happy and con dent readers. A child's success as a reader begins much earlier than the rst day of school. Reading, and a love for reading, begins at home.

As parents we should encourage our kids reading habits and choose the ones that work best for them. It's dif cult for reading to compete with TV and video games. But we should nd time and read with our young ones during free-times. Enjoy special time with them by reading to them, and they reading to you. Take turns reading aloud at bedtime. Kids enjoy this special time with their parents. Reading to young children instils language and expression and promotes better comprehens­ion of text.
