Child Development and Learning to Read
By: Rebecca Walker
When it comes to your child's development, you should not
underestimate how important your role is in how they learn to
read. While many parents feel that it is okay to wait until their
child goes to school before they start learning to read, this is
something which could disadvantage your child when compared
to other children in their class who have been getting taught
from a much younger age. Through playing a proactive role in
how your child learns to read and write throughout their school
life, and before, you will be able to ensure your child forms a
better relationship with you as a parent, a person who is able to
teach them, and will ultimately perform better in school.

Start Your Child Reading With Books
By: Elaine Mak
Bring out the genius in a child is a responsibility that all parents
should undertake. It requires you to have a strong, positive
attitude towards the learning process. Every child looks up to
his or her mommy or daddy as a role model. If you are a parent
yourself, you must guide your child and encourage her to have a
deep, abiding thirst for knowledge. Your attitude will determine,
to a large extent, how much and how fast your child will learn to
read and enjoy reading.

The Best Resource To Help Your Child Read is Patience
By: Inger Fountain
As a child I loved reading. I felt very comfortable with both and
had no idea that some kids just don't "get" reading and struggle
all the way. I know one of the things that helped me was that my
mum was a bibliophile. She always loved books (something she
passed onto me) and we always had a steady stream of new and
second hand books in my house.
When I had my own son I started to fill the house with books...
