How do you do this?
How do you best support them in every way?
The cheapest fix is read.
Start now.
Start a routine habit of reading to little ones every day.
Uh you couldn't do any better anything better.
We know that children who are read too do better in school, do better in life.
And now the researchers say say that they're also happier.
They're happier if they're readers.
So you know, you think go to the library, you don't have to pay for the books.
And they'll advise you if you're a parent, you know, and you don't know what to give your kid next, you don't know what they to get them to read, what will I do to make them be a reader?
Also, of course, read to them.
Read out loud.
You know, you can read out loud to a twelve year old.
Anyone can be lazy about reading.
And we know that reading is about story.
So if you read aloud to your child, you're taking all the hard work away.
And hopefully, my trick always was read to a cliffhanger and then stop.
And also the thing I say to my kids was, don't read that book.
It's not appropriate for you.
