Reading with kids? Try this before you even open the book! 1. Look at the cover and predict what's inside. 2. Talk about what you're curious about. 3. After reading, discuss your discoveries. This makes reading a conversation, not a task, and helps learning stick! #ReadingTips #Parenting

A hidden library in the mountains of Seoul 📚 The Inwangsan Forest Rest Area used to be a military post, but today it’s a peaceful spot to pause, read, and breathe in the forest air. Such a magical blend of history, books, and nature! 📹 @nazacca

Reading tips by age: 📚 📚 0–1: Point & name objects, make it playful. 📚 1–2: Encourage questions, let them turn pages. 📚 2–3: Ask about pics, let them choose books. 📚 3–4: Spot letters, talk about characters. 📚 4–5: Let them retell, draw, explore word meanings.

The Wonder of Words!✨ Strong readers love books and the words in them! Boost word knowledge by: Playing word games e.g.: ⭐Find new words from a root (act → action, react) ⭐Explore words with 2+ meanings (fly) ⭐Play with prefixes (preheat, redo) Wordplay boosts confidence + love of reading! 📚

Today's #SundayShelfie ! When children are surrounded by books from the start, books become more than objects, they become friends. The sooner we encourage their natural curiosity, the more likely they are to become lifelong readers. Let's make books a part of their daily routine! 📹 @iammarybennett

Before babies read, they develop print awareness - understanding that text has meaning! Watch them "pretend read," babble at books, and turn pages. Support this by reading aloud often, pointing to words, and modeling book handling. #BabyDevelopment #ReadingToBaby 📖
