I learned the importance of literacy and learning from my parents. While my sister and I were growing up, my parents were always reading to us, providing us with reading materials, and encouraging us to problem solve and learn every single day. Now that I am a mother, I have continued the same traditions with my daughter as well. From reading to her every single day, to finding small ways to teach her everywhere we go, there are lots of ways that I encourage her early love of reading and learning.
