here’s a thread on how to develop a good reading culture.
Feel free to add some that can be adapted.
1. You’ll need to realize that a good reading culture is about being disciplined. You can’t build it over night. Because it’s a discipline, it’ll be hard and there are many temptations. But build it until it’s second nature.
2. Understand the book you‘re reading. Knowing what you’re about to read and why it was written affects your attitude towards the book and will determine how you respond to it. So read the preface or any preceding notes. A good appreciation for the book will go a long way.
3. Pick a book within your sphere of interest or knowledge area. People often ask ‘How do you choose a book to read?’ The answer is simple. Pick a book you can relate to, a book you’ll understand and like. My favorite book may not be yours. So know what you like and go for it.
4. Take recommendations with a pinch of salt. Everyone has different tastes and preferences. They might recommend a book they like and if you read point 3, that book may be way out of your area of interest.
5. Never Ever read when you’re distracted or uncomfortable. These two things can turn a good book into a bother and seem like school work 😂.
We don’t want that. Get comfortable, put your feet up and read. Just don’t sleep. It’s unacceptable.

Have a designated reading space in the house for keeping all reading materials-- it could be a bookshelf in a corner or a table in the kid's room. The idea is to make books and other reading materials accessible for children at home.
Just like eating healthy food and exercising daily are essential for staying fit, reading regularly is important for keeping the mind sharp. And so, parents should make reading daily a part of their and their child's routine.
Step 2: Confirm the Nuria Global Warehouse address to use. For example, if you are shopping from an online store in the USA, use our USA warehouse address. If from the UK, use our UK warehouse address… and so on.
Step 3: Use the correct shipping address on checkout as you complete your order from the online store. Remember to address your items in the proper format i.e. Your Name (C/O Nuria Kenya).
3. Why don’t birds fall off trees when they sleep ?
4. Why is it called building when it is already
built ?
5. When they say dog food is new and improved,
who tastes it ?
6. “I Love You” is not a question then why does it
need an answer ?
7. Why does round pizza come in a square box ?
8. Why doesn’t glue stick to its bottle ?
9. If money doesn’t grow on trees then why do
banks have branches ?
Don't be confused!
Remember that, nothing in nature lives for itself.
Rivers don't drink their own water.
Trees don't eat their own fruit. The Sun doesn't
produce heat for itself, and the moon never goes
on a honeymoon.
Living for Others is the Rule of Nature.
