I speak now as a parent, as well as, a teacher.  Read to your child every day.  Hold them on your lap and read to them.  Talk about the pcitures and the words of the story.  Focus on one word on each page that they might not know.  Talk about what it means.  This will help to develop their vocabulary.  They will be learning and not even know it!!  If your child loves to read they will succeed in school.  Share your favorite childhood books and help them find their favorites.  Have your child act out the book. Preschooler love to act out stories and they are very good at it.  If a child says reading is boring it's because they never found a story that interest them.  Spend time at the library.  There is certain mystery about libraries that children will love.  Rows and rows of books that can open a whole new world to your child. Once they discover the joy of reading they will want to read all of the time.  Have fun reading!!  Until next time..
