Collaborative Practice - Save The Children: #Take10

Good Morning has started a campaign called #Take10 Minutes to read to your child. They want all parents to pick up a book for ten minutes a day and read to their child/ren. They want to encourage you to remember the importance of literacy to achieve the best for your future. Together with The Sun newspaper they have discovered that more than two thirds of children would actually like to read more and almost three quarters would like to spend more time reading with their Mum or Dad. These figures really support the Read On, Get On campaign.They have got a huge amount of support from celebrities with children as well as those who read a lot.

We love reading to our kids, particularly the twins - they're at that age now where they just listen and they love Dora The Explorer - they just get it and say "Daddy, read...you have to!" I say 'No I have to go for a run," and they say "No, Daddy, read!"
