How to Get Kids Reading: Raise an Eager Reader
Encouraging a love of books and getting your kids reading eagerly is one of the most important things you can do as a parent.
If your kindergartener or first-grader doesn’t seem interested in reading by himself yet, don’t worry -- kids’ reading skills develop at different speeds. Some children may be plowing through early-reader books in kindergarten or first grade while others may not catch the reading bug till second grade or later.
