 There are few things that we can do that are more important than to instill a love of reading in our children. Reading is a lifelong gift. If you read, you can always educate yourself. It doesn’t matter if you are reading from a computer screen, a paperback or from a leather-bound classic. Rather than getting upset at life’s delays, A-B-A-B (Always Bring A Book) and put this time to profitable use. Set the reading example in your home. Children read when they see their parents reading. Keep plenty of books, magazines and newspapers in the house for everyone to read and discuss. Set family reading goals and provide children with incentives for reading. Set aside a time each week for reading aloud as a family. Take regular family trips to bookstores and libraries. Make sure children are involved in a summer reading program. Encourage all family members to give books as presents.
