15. If your children are learning to read, it's wonderful! Whatever they 're reading, they're probably super﹣ excited readers! But the fact is, reading is a skill. Here are some useful ways to help make your children love reading!
◆Create a comfortable reading environment.
Choose a special place with right furnishings (家具陈设), blankets and pillows for your children and put a bookcase of your children's books. (1)
If your children feel they have got their own special place for reading, they will probably spend time in their little space with all their new favourite books.
◆Set aside time to read together.
If you want your children to learn to love reading, set aside a few minutes every day to read together, no matter how busy you are. (2)
Plan to go to bed a few minutes earlier each night, so your children have the time to choose a book to read. Besides, reading aloud to your children can make them more willing to read on their own.
◆Make the library and bookstore a special treat.
Whether your kids are big readers or not, they are only children. They may be excited about new clothes and toys, but not books! Try to use that excitement to help your children love to read. Making a special treat of spending some time at the library or bookstore can be a perfect way to get your children excited about reading. (3)
