  • Summary

  • We all want our kids to read, right?


    If you’re listening to this podcast, it’s probably safe to say that you want your kids to grow up to read more often than the average adult does. We want them to be lifelong learners and avid readers who read for pleasure.


    So it’s worth considering how we can cultivate the habits of real adult readers in our kids so that they grow up to be the readers we want them to be. And it turns out some of those skills are actually in direct opposition to how we tend to approach reading with our kids.


    In this episode, you’ll hear:

    • How choosing what to read is a skill you can help your kids develop
    • Eight habits of avid adult readers
    • Practical tips for cultivating the skills of adult readers in your kids
