Read at least one book to your child every day

Why it Matters
-
Reading out loud matters!
-
Reading out loud helps children learn LOTS of written and spoken words, which can help with school.
-
Reading is a fun, special time with your child. It helps you have a positive relationship.
-
Make reading time fun! Talk about the pictures, make up stories, laugh together, and ask your child questions.
-
Reading together does not need to be time consuming. Reading only takes a few minutes a day (see "Making a Plan").
-
Reading together does not need to be expensive. Get books from the library or an inexpensive store (see "Making a Plan").
-
Make daily reading part of every day with your child.
