MAKE A ROUTINE - Setting aside time with our children to read each day definitely helps. The most common starting point is storybooks. By letting our children learn the habit of reading, we can help establish their interest in books.
READ AT ALL PLACES - Road signs, book titles, car stickers, business names – we have all kinds of text around us as reading materials. It is common to hearparents who ask their children “can you read that for me, please?” It’s onetechnique to help children read better.
LISTEN AS THEY READ - When our children are capable enough to read sentences, we can listen in as they read short passages. This way, we’ll catch the areas where they struggle on. That’s where we come in to help them out.
MAKE IT ENTERTAINING - We can purchase toys and other entertaining materials that foster our children’s reading ability. For example, we can purchase a set of blocks with printed letters on them and give our children certain words to spell.
BE POSITIVE - Creating a reading-friendly environment at home gives more benefits that we realize. If our children have older siblings, or if we live with other family members, let’s tell them about our plan to get our little one to read. This way, everyone in the household can contribute to our child’s improvement.
Dear parents, with all of the tips above, let us remember one thing as parents: we should never treat reading as an academic activity at home. We wish you all the best in your Parenting .. and Reading adventures !
And Allah Knows Best.
