Involves a lot more than books. I noticed my son Nick (2) grabbing his portion of the newspaper this morning as we sat together at the breakfast table. First it was the Toys R Us ads, then the comics. As I continued my section, I noticed him looking over at me and imitating my reading habits. He laid out the paper exactly like me, and held his sippy cup just like I held my cup of coffee.
My point is, I wasn't actively trying to teach him anything about reading. I was just doing it.
I know life is busy for everyone, but if you want your kids to read, you need to lead by example.
