How can I help my child in reading?

The more time your child spends reading, the more confident he/she will feel 
while reading.  Encourage your child to read daily.  Your child can read to 
you, you can take turns reading to each other, or after your child is 
finished reading you can have your child tell you 2-3 interesting things 
that they have read.
