    Helpful Hints for Parents
    Reading to and with your child every day is the best way to help your child develop their reading skills.
    Here are 5 ways to bring reading into your child’s day.
    1. Set a time when everyone in your family sits down and reads. Try reading as a family 1 or 2 times a week for 20-30 minutes.
    2. When you are at the doctor’s office or drive through line, give your child a book to read instead of a phone or tablet.
    3. Cook or bake with your child and have them read the recipe steps to you.
    4. Make weekly trips to the library. Find books that your child is interested in, ask the librarian for suggestions.
    5. Be a good role model. Let your child see you reading newspapers, books, and magazines and talk about the interesting things you have learned.
