📚 Reading Tip Monday

Read the World Around You 🌎📖

Reading doesn’t just happen in books! Encourage children to read street signs, menus, recipes, grocery lists, and even directions while you’re out and about.
Showing children that reading is part of everyday life helps build confidence and strengthen literacy skills.

Where does your child like to read outside of books?

Create a Family Reading Goal 🎯📖

As the school year begins, set a reading goal the whole family can work toward together.

Whether it’s reading one book each week, visiting the library twice a month, or enjoying a bedtime story every night, shared goals help make reading a family tradition.
