Rather than limiting your reading sessions with your child to a routine, indoor activity, why not be spontaneous, and try other locations and unorthodox times. Keep books in the car, in your handbag, on the washing machine, even in the garden in summer (weather permitting!) Often it is these reading sessions that a child remembers over the others. Spontaneous reading can also help introduce them to words and language that they might not otherwise be exposed to at home.
