A love of reading will benefit your baby for a lifetime. Children will become better students and writers, have better vocabulary and know more about the world around them. The library is a great place for your child to start on this path.

Steps

1. Visit your local library If it's been a while and you have found out for yourself this place. Take a look around, ask if you want and get a library card if you haven't already.

2. 

   Find the library's children's programs and services. Search for a schedule of events and ask a librarian if you're unsure. Some libraries have programs for infants and toddlers.

3. 

   
   
   Read to your child regularly. You can read before bedtime and at any set time. Even if your child is not yet able to read, get them used to the idea that stories are in books, and time spent in the stories is time to sit quietly. For older and reading children, start reading multi-chapter books and other material that is a bit out of their ability to read. For multi-chapter books, you can read one chapter at a time.
4. Teach children how to keep books. Never allow books getting messed up or tossed about. Get your child used to treating books in a special way and keeping them in a special place. It's best to keep the books on a shelf, but they can also be placed on a small nightstand or desk if that makes sense, especially when the book is being read halfway.

5. 

   
   
   Make your child's own library card. In most cases, you will still be in charge of keeping and returning the books, but it feels better to have your own card than to have to borrow books to help your child.
   • When your children are old enough, encourage them to take care of their own books and keep track of the due date, but you should still supervise and remind them, especially in the beginning.

6. 

   Attend age-appropriate library programs. Many libraries offer storytelling times, shows and many other activities for children. It's a great opportunity to help your child relate to the library with happy experiences, and many of the activities in it are designed to encourage reading.
7. 
   
   Visit the library regularly, once or twice a week. If your child has their own library card, let them borrow books on their own.
   • Borrow at least one book every week. Remember that a book a week for young children can be plenty.
8. Read and use the library as a template. Please borrow books to read every time you take your child to the library.

9. 

   Make time to read each day. As children get older, pre-bedtime reading can turn into independent reading time.
10. Allow your child to be freebook selection. For young children, help them choose the right book, but still let them choose what they like. As your kids get older, you can let them choose their own book titles and decide what they find interesting and appropriate.

11. 

    Registration Summer reading program if. It's a great way to help your child engage with summer vacation reading, meaning his or her knowledge will improve over the summer instead of being forgotten. Reading is also a form of anti-boredom and watching too much TV during the summer, even if the child chooses to read only comic books and crime stories. advertisement

Advice

• Naps are also good times to read. Children may not always have naps, but over time they will turn into a time to read when they are old enough. This way, both you and your child can get enough rest during the day, even after the baby has passed its toddler stage.
• Almost every library lists books by age. These books will be appropriate for children of that age, and are often more readily available as well. If your child has read well, you can use books for ages older than 1 year.

Warning

• Do not accept sulk or behavior that annoys other readers. Remind your child that the library is a quiet place before entering. Take your child out if he loses control.
• Always supervise children in the library. Understand the library's rules about supervising children and the age at which children can go to the library unattended.
