Studies focusing on parents of successful readers found that they do more than simply read to their children (Green & Halsall, 1991; Halsall & Green, 1995). They also engage in specific strategies, which maximize the reading experience. Early childhood educators can play an important role in sharing such strategies with parents. They first wrote the strategies in simple language and added pictures demonstrating the strategies being implemented. They then shared these strategies with parents through workshops, printed materials, and videotapes. Following are examples of these strategies: a) Talk about the book with your child before reading it; b) Use an enthusiastic voice when reading aloud; and c) Let your child ask questions about the book.
