Falling in love with reading starts at home! Check out some of my favorite tips I tell my clients to help make their home a space where reading is loved and encouraged: 1. Read with your child every day 2. Put books EVERYWHERE, not just in your child's bedroom 3. Ditch google, use books for information 4. Read at all times of the day, not just at bedtime Make sure your child sees how much YOU love to read! As we all know kids love to copy the adult . . . #growwithbeck #preschool #kindergarten #kindergartenadmissions #earlychildhood #literacy #earlylearning #NYCeducation #earlyliteracy #scienceofreading

Teaching your child to know how to read can be tricky! While reading with them and reading their favorite book is a great way to invoke their love for reading, it isn’t going to TEACH them how to read. It will teach them how to MEMORIZE which is also a very important skill, but not the most handy for when your child picks up a new book that they haven’t read yet! . . . . #growwithbeck #preschool #kindergarten #kindergartenadmissions #earlychildhood #literacy #earlylearning #NYCeducation #earlyliteracy #scienceofreading
