How can parents promote good reading habits in their children? Discuss.

Parents can promote good reading habits in their children by starting to read to their kids at a young age. As the child gets older, they can offer little rewards for every book or couple of books they read on their own. For me, my grandmother started taking me to the library when I was two and she taught me how to read. I think because I learned how to read at such a young age is the reason why I love to read now. I think if a parent starts reading to their child at a young age, the child will have good reading habits as they grow older. Right now, we are having my little brother read a book to one of us every night. He is five, almost six, so my parents figured that they should get him reading so he will get into a habit of reading a book every night before he goes to sleep, whether it be to himself or to one of us.
