MOMS READING TO THEIR CHILDREN

RANKS AS TOP DAILY ACTIVITY

Among moms with children between 2 and 6,

reading is the one activity they spend more time doing with their kids,

and its likely to ignite a lifelong enthusiasm

for reading, learning and success.

And reading out loud enhances the chances

that these children will grow up reading books.

. . . all this according to a recent survey of daily activities

of moms with children, conducted by Ipsos Public Affairs.

More than TV, more than computers, more than any

other daily activity, "moms reading out loud" to their children

tops the survey results, with predictable favorable results.

Good job, moms.

The best teaching always starts at home.
