RAR #43: Raising Kids Who Read, Daniel Willingham

For Mamas of Older Kids & Teens
bySarah Mackenzie

If you want to raise kids who read not because they can, but because they love to… you’re in the right place.

On this episode of the Read-Aloud Revival podcast, Daniel Willingham and I discuss:

  • what cognitive science tells us that will help our kids fall in love with books. (It’s easier than you think!)
  • a new perspective on the role of technology in the reading life
  • and books that formed Daniel as a reader – he has great taste! ;)
