Parents who read often have children that read, and this is a huge area of opportunity for parents. Far too many parents aren't reading and neither are their children. So how often do you read?

A reader or non-reader, opportunity is all around you. You should be the role model for your children and with reading, it's no different. If you enjoy reading, and consider yourself a reader, there's a good chance your child will be a reader. And if you're not, consider any of these ideas to get you started;

- Go to your local library and get a library card. While you're there, ask about any reading programs; or set a goal to read a book every two or three weeks.

- Determine a subject of interest to you, and read a book on that subject.

- Find a place that you would like to learn about or visit, and read a book about that place.

- Identify something that you would like to learn to do, read a book on it and try to do it.

- Have a family reading time without the television.
