Great news. Remember the mom from the Oct. 1 post?
Well, she has done an amazing job and in just one short week, her son is now picking up books and reading more.
She says she went right home and got out a selection of books in subjects that interested her son. She put some on the coffee table, one or two on her son’s bed, and scattered others throughout the house. Her husband saw the books in the living room, and started flipping through them. Before she knew it, her son had joined him and they were both sitting there reading.
Not only that, but the other day she was wondering why it was taking her son so long to get ready for his bath. She thought, “What the heck’s taking him so long?” And then she realized – he was up there reading. Something he wouldn’t have done before.
She also tried out the Hide-a-Kiss idea, and said it was really fun, and it worked.
Congratulations to another super reading-friendly family – way to go!
