How can we develop reading habits in children??

My love for reading stemmed from my mother reading to me as a child and seeing her read whenever she had free time. If you show interest in books, your child might want to emulate that. Alternatively, for future presents (birthday, christmas, celebrations etc), gift your children with books instead of the usual toys. On the weekends, take them to the public libraries to browse and borrow books. Sometimes, the libraries have special events like readings and story telling sessions for kids. Constant exposure to a literary environment and books will help develop reading habits in children.
