307: Building a Love for Reading in Our Children
About this episode
JJ Seid discusses the importance of fostering a love for reading in children amidst a screen-heavy world.
“The chores aren’t done…Should I really sit down to read?” In this excerpt from one of our in-person workshops, JJ Seid explains why a home filled with books matters more than wealth or degrees for your kids’ future. He discusses research and encouragement for busy parents, showing that reading is a powerful act of resistance in a screen-heavy world. Reading aloud, surrounding your kids with books, and modeling a love of reading are all keys to fostering that love in our children. Whether you’re homeschooling or just want your kids to love learning, you’ll find practical strategies to transform your home!
