Got get yourself a passion card, maybe your spouses and grandparents too. You can borrow something like 10 to 20 books depend if got school holiday. Then binge borrow books from public libraries. You can borrow from ANY libraries and return all to the same library. Stock up your home with books and read to the kids every night. Maybe 3 to 5 books per night. Initially borrow diverse kids genre, say dinosaurs, unicorns, adventures, etc. You will notice your kids start to love specific type of books. You can then narrow in to those type. Pick books with just 10 to 20 words per page. Do this consistently everyday, and you kids not only will pick up more vocab, they will start to read faster too. Usually you will notice it when they start reading public signs. Sometime a kid will love a specific book. You can then go buy it from Amazon or Bookdepository. Or you can reborrow again. The idea here is get yourself tons of books, and read to the kids frequently. This has been proven to work. My kids can read pretty long sentences and paragraphs by 3rd years old birthday.
