We live in a world that is fighting for our kid's attention.

There's T.V., video games, cell phones, social media, and the list goes on that are filling many of our children's lives.

We also live in a world full of busyness where our kids have one activity after another, leaving little time for anything else, let alone reading.

Reading is powerful. A story opens a new world for our children. It teaches our kids new perspectives.

I love this quote by Sarah Mackenzie, “We read with our children because it gives both them and us an education of the heart and mind. Of intellect and empathy. We read together and learn because stories teach us how to love.”

Reading shouldn't be an afterthought. It's something we need to prioritize to make it happen. But how?

In today's show, I share 9 ways to help your kids love reading. If you want your kids to fall in love with reading and make reading part of your everyday lives, this episode is for you.

Let's raise a generation of readers who will lead our world well!
