How:
Take time to read to your kids and with your kids every day. Have your children read to you, to a sibling, to a pet, or to a stuffed animal. Kids can read books, magazines, news, online content, and even grocery lists. Most importantly, take time to talk with your kids about what they are learning about. Help them make connections to themselves, other books, and the world.
