How has summer reading been for your child? It is important to keep reading during the summer months. A goal of 2 hours per week is sufficient to keep their minds developing. Your child should be able to choose the books that they want to read. That is because they will feel that they have input in their reading. It should be fun for them to read. Set aside a time when you can read while your child is reading. If a child sees their parents reading, they are more likely to emulate this. Do you have a child that is too young to read? Little ones should also be reading 2 hours per week or have books read to them. They will love the quiet time they get to spend with you. Have them describe what is happening in the pictures. Can they tell you what just happened on the page you just read. This exercise will help them develop their comprehension skills. We would like to hear how summer reading has been for you. Share your thoughts, comments and ideas.

It can be a no win battle getting your child to read. This becomes more difficult during the summer months when they just want to relax and hang out with their friends. Do not show your frustration when your child becomes stubborn. They will feed off of your frustration and the situation will only become worse. Instead, relax and offer up incentives for them to read. An example of an incentive for your child could be having a friend stay the night or allow your child to stay out an extra hour if your towns curfew permits. These types of examples are especially useful if your child is a teenager. If your child is a bit younger letting them play for a little while longer or letting a friend stay over for longer periods of time gives them great incentive and motivation to read.

Summer is a great time to enjoy the outdoors. Especially if you live in an area that actually has seasons. Those who live in places that have winter, welcome the outdoors as much as we welcome a juicy steak. During the summer months your child should still read, but it needs to be fun for them. They need to be able to enjoy the books they are reading. While some kids are harder to get motivated to read than others, for the most part once they sit down and start reading, they will enjoy it very much. Just a quick update on the comic book category of the website. It is nearing completion and will be launched to the public on Thursday, June 17, 2010. Come and checkout our great selections.

Well, summer is now upon us and school has let out for the year. How much will your child read each week? Will your child read this summer or is it a time to rest the brain? We certainly don't want to rest, as this will cause your child lose what they learned during the school year. Your child needs to stay sharp by reading. You do not want your child to spend the beginning of the next school year catching up with the others who read in the summer. You don't need to go crazy on reading, but your child should a minimum of 20 minutes per day. That is only 2 hours per week. It is fine to take a day or 2 off during the week. Just be sure that taking days off does not become a habit. In conclusion, we would just like to give a quick update that we reported last week. The comic books category is still under construction, but should be completed by the end of the month. Stay tuned for more updates as they become pertanent.

When the summer heats up, crank on the AC and read a good book. This is a great way to spend some quality time with your child. Your child will have a multitude of ideas as to what qualifies as a good book to them. Have your preschoolers sound out the letters and then put them together to make words. By doing this not only do they get to spend time with you, but also begin to learn to read in the same process.

It is just about summer time. This is a time for relaxing and enjoying the good weather. It is also a time to soak up some good reading. Don't let the summer slip by without reading a few good books. Most local libraries have a reading program geared for kids. They also give out prizes to those children who spent quality time with their books. This is a great way to keep reading all summer long. The added bonus in it for you is that it is FREE!
