📚 Throughout the month of July, we're sharing reading tips to help you get ready for the new school year. The summer is a great time to get together with distant relatives, and it's always exciting when they come around to visit! Encourage your child to show off their newfound reading skills by reading to a relative or retelling a story from memory! 📖
