Finally, look for enjoyment in your reading. If you say to your child, “We’ve got to go read now,” but you roll your eyes and use a tone that really says, “It’s time for your daily punishment,” your child is likely to fight you and balk about it. Use a tone that says you’re excited about spending this time together, learning about new things, enjoying new stories. If you set the right tone, reading together can be a memorable, bond-forming time with your child.
