Reading to Children

" Reading to your child provides a valuable educational advantage; there's no better way to achieve it. Children who are read to do fr better in school than those who are not..."
Read to Me: Raising kids who love to Read
by Bernice e. Cullinan

OK, so many of us lead very busy lives but there a lots of ways to sneak a little reading time in with our children.

• place books where they play
• keep a book in your purse/bag
• let them write the grocery list (even if that means they are drawing it)
• read a book that you may both enjoy (even if it doesn't have pictures... they won't care if you use cool voices)
• try to get the whole family to participate (read a story at the dinner table or while someone is cooking)
• make it special... have a special chair or blanket to snuggle with.

Save Even More Money

This is just a helpful tip: Get in the habit of asking, "Do you offer a military discount?" every time you buy something. You might be surprised at how many places truly support the troops.

...and here is a freebie:
All Federal employees should get a 15% discount on their personal cell phones by calling their carrier and mentioning the "Federal Telecommunications Act of 1996-Discount to Federal Employees Past and Present"

However, you will need to know the military member's supervisor's name, phone number, and full address to verify military status.

We Save You Money!

Try and sit back and add up all the money you spend on movie rentals, buying books, and Cd's.

Is the sum bigger than you expected... well, what if I told you that I could save you some of that money by just using your base library?

Our Luke community saved a ton of money last year by thinking of us first for their information needs. About $1,763,633.90!!!
