Teaching your child to read

Every parent wants to teach their child as much as they can. But, pushing your child to learn isn't the best strategy. Try making learning fun and challenging! Show your child that you are interested and having fun when reading! Let them be curious and use their imagination. And try not to correct them if they make a mistake. If you see something they need to work on, like pronouncing a word, make a game out of it, like follow the leader, you saying a word, then them repeating it. By challenging your child, they will learn to challenge themselves! Also, pay attention to your child's shows, and ask questions to get them to communicate with you. If you show interest in what your child is learning, they will too. Read to your kid at least once a day and encourage them to read to you! ~Jess http://tipsandtricksfornewmommys.weebly.com/index.html
