\"How<\/p>\n

Reading is the best known way to train the mind\u00a0to focus. That’s why it’s extremely\u00a0important to keep\u00a0kids\u00a0love books.<\/strong><\/div>\n

These days, children get easily distracted by\u00a0games or videos.<\/p>\n

The problem is not only that they prefer gaming to\u00a0reading. The problem is a big number of games they can play, and videos they can watch.<\/p>\n

Just like we zipped through TV channels, our kids jump from one game to another\u00a0and from YouTube video to another\u00a0without even finishing.<\/p>\n

In the long run it leads to shortening attention span. It will be more and more difficult to keep our kids’\u00a0attention on one topic or activity for longer than a couple of minutes.<\/p>\n

We shared already several infographics and charts on how to encourage children to read. An infographic created by Love Reading 4 Kids<\/a>\u00a0is a great addition. It lists tips on how\u00a0to draw – and keep – kids’ attention on reading.<\/p>\n

Among twelve ideas to use, there is also the one that includes technology. Using the e-reader or a book reading app on the tablet can motivate children to read by providing reading progress and reading speed information.<\/p>\n

And a nice poster hanging in a children’s room, reminding about how wonderful reading is<\/a>, could also help.<\/p>\n
