Simple Ways to Make It Happen
✓ Set a regular reading time each day — morning, after lunch, or before bed
✓ Let your child choose books they're excited about — interest drives motivation
✓ Read aloud together, even to older children — it builds vocabulary for everyone
✓ Visit the Mashpee Public Library for free books, programs, and summer challenges
✓ Audiobooks and e-books count — the format matters less than the habit
✓ Talk about what you're reading — ask questions, share opinions, make connections
✓ Make it cozy — a reading nook, a blanket, a snack can make reading a treat
✓ Model reading yourself — when kids see adults read, they want to read too
