Reading becomes attractive and interesting for a child not when it is part of homework, but when it is organized as an exciting adventure.

That's why today we decided to share some practical tips that will help you get your children involved in the world of books.

Read regularly at a set time

In your schedule and your child's schedule, set aside time for reading together, for example, before bed.

As a result, the child (and the teenager too) will expect this moment as a pleasant event – positive associations with reading are guaranteed.

Choose books together

Allow your child to choose books based on their interests - this way, the desire to read a book will be reinforced by a sense of control and personal responsibility for reading.
