"There is more treasure in books than in all the pirate's loot on Treasure Island." — Walt Disney

It's no secret that activities at home are an important supplement to the classroom, but there's more to it than that. There are things that parents can give children at home that the classrooms cannot give. There is no more important activity for preparing a child to succeed as a reader than reading aloud together. Fill your storytimes with a variety of books. Be consistent, be patient, and watch the magic work!
