My husband and I were surrounded by books, even though our families didn’t have much money.\u00a0 However, we were youngsters in the days when TV was in its infancy and video games didn’t exist.\u00a0 Our daughter grew up in the TV era but didn’t have the electronics of today that her children do.<\/p>\n
In spite of the electronics that exist, we all enjoy having a book or magazine in our hands.\u00a0 My granddaughter uses computer, the Internet, and an iTouch.\u00a0 But she always has a book nearby to pick up at a moment’s notice.\u00a0 Our grandson, although not quite the intense reader his sister is, enjoys books, too, and is a fan of graphic novels.<\/p>\n
So we haven’t had the problem in our home of getting youngsters to read.\u00a0 Many families do in these days of electronics, and I often hear youngsters remark, in schools where I substitute teach, “I hate to read.”<\/em><\/p>\n Corrin Howe, in the article, Parenting Tips for Reluctant Readers<\/a>, gives us ten tips for capturing the attention of readers who aren’t so enthusiastic.\u00a0 These are very common sense and easy to implement.<\/p>\n How have you engaged your reluctant reader <\/strong>in books, magazines and even instructions for games and making items?<\/p>\n Post from: Blisstree<\/a><\/p>\n
