Reading should be a really engaging
activity that will make your child develop their skills in an array of ways. It
helps to give your child that understanding of new sentence structures,
vocabulary and of ways to build some of the greatest stories in written words.
It helps your child work on many skills to guide them through life and
experiences.
To help your child work on their reading
skills, here are some top tips to help them enjoy and appreciate picking up a
book.
Make reading feel fun
Use a range of different reading activities
to help your child expand their understanding of new and improved skills. They
can be in picture books, graphic novels, or comic books to help your child see
the different kinds of writing out there for your child to explore. Your child
might not necessarily enjoy picking up the usual reading books, so it’s
important to give your child the freedom to explore different stories, and make
it fun.
Make time for spelling and
vocabulary games
Reading should feel interesting in different
ways. If your child isn’t able to pick up the different words and phrases then
it’s time to go back to basics. Let your child take part in lots of different
games that will get them exploring lots of elements to the English Language.

Take charge of the reading
Reading aloud and acting as the responsible
figure of reading in the home will motivate your child. They’ll see you as an
authoritative figure on when it’s time to sit around in a circle and read a
story together. Use a loud, excited voice to talk to your child about a story
you’re reading together.
