[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. I took both kids to library today. The first grader did not want to checkout any books, but he read a few simple books there. I had to limit how many books the 4 year old could checkout, and she ended up with 15 books with those picture books that she wanted. I already tried my best to make it exciting, and all the oldest care could play kid game at library computer. At the end, I made him to checkout a few book against his wishes of checkout zero book, and they were all simple books with pictures. I told him that if he got to read 50 books, he will get a reward which I has not thought about it yet. Before we went to library, I took them to dunkin donuts for treats beforehand. I already did my best to make it fun. [/quote] Op they may be absorbing your mindset. Going to the library in inherently fun. If you think you need to work to make it fun, they can tell. Find something you are genuinely interested in reading about. Tell them about it. Have them watch you search the online card catalogue to find what section you need to visit. Or better yet, when you're all together, ask the librarian to direct you too the right section.[/quote]
