Modern children have many temptations that lead them away from useful things and creative work.
Of course, we will talk about gadgets that often get in the way of reading and even studying.
It is impossible to instill a love for books or even a basic interest in them in a child, and simply taking away a tablet or smartphone is also not an option.
Let's find out if it is possible to teach a child to read books and get them to give up their smartphone.
First, give real examples.
The simplest example is to take a child to the zoo and tell him about the interesting books or stories about animals that exist.
As a result, positive associations and emotions will arise. The main thing is not to miss the moment and choose the right book in time, taking into account the interests of the child.
Secondly, ask your child’s opinion.
Don't just push new books on your child as soon as he finishes reading.
Talk to him, discuss what he liked, what character, actions, etc. To do this, you need to be a little bit in the know yourself.
If necessary, you can reread the moment you like.
Third, read together
At first, one way or another, you will have to read together, instilling a love of reading by your own example.
And don't stop at one genre. The child should see that the world of books is fascinating and diverse.
