Turn off the idiot boxes and the "social" media. Get thee to the library.

There are a zillion stories all kids love and are fascinated with. Start reading them out loud...

Soon the kids will want to read them selves under the covers at night...even if they are dumb books....like Nancy Drew....etc. I had three daughters...there are serials for horselovers....they can't stop reading them...like literary popcorn.

Children's literature can be really great. Like "Kidnapped" by Robert Louis Steveson...

MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY....great stuff.
