Encouraging your child to read story books

JX learns to read. He particularly like this story and has repeatedly read it over and over again. He only recognises some basic characters and remembers the rest of the story. Heard that children at this age tends to memorise things better, so besides stories, you could try getting him/her to recite poetry too!

To us, grasping the Mother Tongue from young is important as he would get plenty of chances to learn English in future. At home, his Aunt and me would speak to him sometimes in English. Also, he would learn English from the websites. In fact, he has expressed before that he likes to watch English VCDs and speak English, perhaps from the fact that most of his classmates speak English at Nursery 2.
