Ten fail-proof rules for helping children love to read
by reading aloud to them:
- No matter the child’s age, end the reading period before they are restless, bored, or tired.
- Start with picture books when babies are several months old. As the child grows, find the right books for the child’s understanding and age level.
- Strive to find books that interest and please the child.
- Parents: read to your children as a part
of your schedule, and as a way to spend time together. Read to them even
if they can read well by themselves.
- Make your reading time a relaxing time. If you, the adult reader, are tense or tired,
read just a page or two and stop.
- The rules for adults at reading time: no lectures, no arguments, no anger, no teaching, no criticisms, no martyrs.
- Don’t use reading time as a
correction or punishment.
- Read for the fun of it, not to give the child a learning experience. The child will learn because he
or she is in a wonderful world that the author created.
- Get into the book. Be a good and an
interesting reader. Forget yourself. Be enthusiastic, be an actor, be
funny, if you can.
- If you love and value this time together,
your child will too.
The
most important rule of all for parents and adult readers: Children must not be so over-scheduled
that reading is just another task that must be completed. Children need free
time to play, dream, and read.
