Reading for Families: Helping your Child with Reading at Home

Reading for Families: Helping Your Child with Reading at Home shares the stories of six families as they fit reading into their day-to-day lives and routines.

The early years are full of opportunities to nurture a love of reading and language, right from day one. Let your child’s interests lead you as you sing, play and read together. Have fun along the journey to helping your child become an independent and motivated reader. Reading is for everyone, anytime, anywhere.

The DVD has many easy and fun ideas on how to fit reading and literacy activities into busy days. Information and activities appropriate to specific stages of early childhood are presented in three chapters:

1. Setting the Stage for Reading: Infancy to Age Three
2. Beginning Readers: Three to Five Year-Olds
3. Independent Readers: Five to Eight Year-Olds
