The EXTRAORDINARY Family Life Podcast
Kids & Family:Parenting
"Do you have a podcast episode or advice somewhere where you talk about how you instilled a love of reading in your children?
As parents love reading and have read a lot to our children when they were young. Sometimes we still do now, but no matter which book we suggest, they hate reading, and it breaks my heart."
In this episode, we answer this question from a mom and share specific strategies -- and book recommendations -- for helping children of all ages learn to fall in LOVE with 'reading'.
But we also clarify and define what 'reading' actually means -- identifying the outcome you're actually looking for -- and the non-traditional ways that can still be achieved in today's digital world.
If your kids claim they 'hate' reading -- or you just want them to love it more and develop a life-long habit -- then this episode is for you!
