I ask that your child reads for 30 minutes each day.  There is SO much research that shows just how great reading is for your child's developing brain! After they read, talk to them! Ask about the book they are reading.  If it is a nonfiction book, ask them to tell you some facts they learned or something that surprised them.  If they are reading a fiction book, ask about the story elements (characters, setting, problem, solution, etc) or have them make predictions about what may happen next.  Feel free to ask me for more ideas on what to ask about to get that conversation going!
