Children are wonderful, few things bring more joy than watching them excel at things they set out to do.

Children love their parents, they emulate you they want to be like mummy. Let them see you reading on your own, pique their curiosity with how interested you are in books and watch them learn to love books also.
Get them a book you know they will love. Preferably a book with bright pop up pictures and sounds. Does your baby love animals? Get a book with colorful pictures of animals. She loves cakes? You know what to do. Children are naturally curious just use the right book to engage their interest.
You can create a reading corner in a part of your home solely dedicated to your child’s reading. Distractions should not be welcome in this corner, it should be a sanctuary. Your angel’s attention span is low, do not lose it, you need her complete attention. Televisions, radios, pets or any other distracting factor should not be in this area.
Read with them, make reading fun and enjoyable. Mimic the voices of characters in the book, make animal sounds. You can even make a book with a personalized story you know your child would love and relate to.
