READ! READ! READ!
The summer is the perfect time for children of all ages to catch up on some reading. Urge your children to read! This is the time to read for pleasure, not because their teacher tells them to. If children read items that they want to read they will develop a love for reading which is a necessity for future academic success. During the summer break the Public Library is a wonderful place to visit or alternatively, book stores like Chapter's where reading in the store is encouraged.
The only way that children will see reading as natural is if there is reading at home and books are always present on the coffee tables and bookshelves. If children see their parents or older siblings reading, they will develop a very healthy attitude towards books.
Have a wonderful and safe summer.
