If you find that you cannot satisfy your child's curiosity and inquisitiveness, we recommend that you take them to your local library. There’s always a wide variety of things to do and often local events are posted there. Make it fun!
Visit lots of museums with the children. Don’t leave it up to the school; learn with your child, take an interest. Start early. The more interest you take, the more interested they will become too. Make it fun!
If your child shows no interest in reading, visit your local library and speak to your librarian. They will often have interactive books to help motivate your child. Make it fun!
Watch television with the subtitles switched on and sometimes lower the volume. This will promote reading and greater visual recall. Make it fun!
Read to babies as soon as possible. Stories are both stimulating and soothing. They will soon grow up and discover they want to read for themselves. Make it fun!
Use audio tapes if you don't like reading aloud yourself. They are just as good and a wide range of children’s stories are now available. These are great for long car journeys too. Make it fun!
Read with expression, change your tone and modulate your voice. This will make the stories more interesting and also educate your child to understand better what is happening in the story. Make it fun!
When reading to older toddlers, use their finger as a pointer and show them the page and the pictures you are talking about. This aids visual recognition and again makes the experience more interesting and enjoyable for the child. Make it fun!
Listen to your intuition about your child's progress and don’t be afraid to ask questions at school if you have concerns. Make it fun!
Don’t worry. Many parents worry excessively about their child’s education and progress. Make it fun!
