Many parents want their children to read more.

After all, reading helps to expand one’s vocabulary, develops public speaking skills and makes a person more erudite.

However, not all modern children are interested in books.

But you shouldn't force them to read. You need to help your child love reading without harsh measures. There are three tricks.

Leave books in visible places

A child will definitely leaf through a book that suddenly appears in his room.

There is no need to immediately leave a large novel on the table or bedside table.

You can start with children's books, brochures, magazines or even comics. This way, a curious child will gradually get "drawn into" reading.

Start with audiobooks

If a child has difficulty perceiving printed text, you can offer the child to listen to an audiobook.

It is possible that a boy or girl will fall in love with literature in this form, and then become interested in regular books.

Movie Watching Rules

Not all children like literature. But many adore cinema.

You can introduce an interesting rule for your child: watch a movie only after reading the book on which it is based.

Most likely, the child will enjoy comparing novels with film adaptations, so he will want to read them himself.
