Getting to sit down with students and read together is one of my favorite parts of this work. The questions they ask, the way they react to the story and the excitement they bring to every page remind me why we started Share the Magic. – Malcolm Mitchell

Reading at home doesn’t need to feel like another assignment. Keep books within reach, let kids see you reading and talk about what they’re reading without turning it into a quiz. Give them space to find what they like. Small things can make reading a natural part of the day.

"It was good." "I don't know." "Stuff happened." Sound familiar? Use these during your next "So, how's the book?" moment, and help your kid build language skills and confidence along the way. Check out great books kids can't stop talking about: shop.scholastic.com/parent-e…

Creativity doesn’t have to come from elaborate crafts, expensive supplies, or professional outcomes. It can easily come from freedom, curiosity, experimentation… and books! Find more great tips: scholastic.com/parents/books…
