Parents' Corner READO - A Game that Motivates Your Child to Read Reading Services Center

Dear Parents,

We eagerly search for new ways to interest our children to read.

One excellent way to present books is to find out what our children enjoy and help them find books and magazines about that subject.

As parents and teachers, we know that childhood is a time for exploring. We can encourage our young explorers to build new interests, too. We can lead them to discover different kinds of literature that they may not have thought to choose to read on their own.

The following game, Reado, can create a new reading interest for your child.
