Importance of Reading Readiness
Studies have shown that families who start reading aloud to their children at birth help to strengthen their language skills and build their vocabulary – two important tools for beginning to learn to read when they enter kindergarten.
Make a record of what you are reading in a spiral notebook, online, or by whatever method you want. The journal itself will make a great keepsake item and record of your child's interests. If you are able, make sure to keep a record of any book that is being read to your child. This includes teachers and family members.
Use the Summer Reading Challenge year-round to record your books online!

Feel-Good Picture Books for the Warm Days of Summer
With bookbags retiring to closets, schedules getting tossed out the window, and the summer sun soaking everything in a magical glow, it’s time to turn our attention to books that fit the mood. Feel-good, nature-drenched, easy-breezy tales are at the very top of my family’s to-be-read list this season. These picture books are exactly what you and your little readers need to get into that summertime groove. From www.readbrightly.com
