How to help your children get ready to read: 

• Come to the library for books about your children’s specific interests:  books about dogs or cats or trees or boats.  Whatever your children are interested in, those books,  will keep their interest as you read to them.

• Help your children learn how to hold a book and turn the pages.

• Tell stories together, encouraging pretend play.  Let your children be the story teller.

• Sing songs, play games and share rhymes to help your children play with the sounds of words.

• Ask the staff at your local library to assist you in finding what you need to help your children.
