1. Create a reading environment: create an environment conducive to reading, such as providing a quiet and comfortable reading corner for children and placing various books and reading materials suitable for their age. Let children get and choose books they are interested in at any time.
2. Set an example: Parents and educators should set an example for their children to read, and let them see your reading frequency and interest. When children see that adults around them like reading, they are more easily influenced and develop the habit of reading.
3. Set a fixed reading time: Create a fixed reading time every day at home and school. It can be a period of time after getting up in the morning, a period of time before going to bed at night, or any other time suitable for family and school arrangements. Maintain the continuity and stability of this reading time, so that children feel that reading is a part of every day.
4. Diversified reading materials: provide children with a variety of reading materials, including story books, picture books, comic books, popular science books, etc. Try to choose materials according to children's interests and preferences to ensure that children are willing to read.
5. Reading with children: Reading with children is an important way to cultivate children's reading habits. You can choose some books suitable for children's age, read with them, and share your feelings and thoughts when reading with them. Interact with them in the process of reading, ask questions and increase their sense of participation.
6. Reward and praise: Give children some small rewards or praise to encourage them to keep reading. You can set up a reading reward system, such as giving a small gift or reward after completing a certain number of books or reading time. In this way, children will associate reading with positive returns and have more motivation to stick to it.
7. Explore the fun of reading: Help children discover the fun of reading and improve their reading experience by telling stories, role-playing and visiting the library. Make reading interesting and meaningful in many ways, and stimulate their interest and imagination.
8. Respect children's choices: respect children's reading choices and give them autonomy and control. Encourage them to choose books and reading materials that they are interested in, and don't force them to read content that they are not interested in.
It takes time and patience to cultivate children's reading habits. Establishing a positive reading environment, participating in reading with children and encouraging children to enjoy reading are the keys to help children keep reading and cultivate reading habits.
