Summer is a great time to increase your child’s ability to read.  Often there is more down time during the summer months and this provides a great chance to find a new book and deepen your appreciation for a good read.  As you know, children learn easily by observing behavior and love being included.  This is why reading as a family for 15 minutes a day will not only increase your child’s ability to read you will deepen your relationships, increase quality memories, and learn new things together.  In the long run your child will integrate the true value of reading.

Are you excited to start reading but don’t know what to choose.  Visit your local library as they provide guidance for choosing an appropriate book.  Make it a family trip and then dig into your new family practice.
