Point out the useful ways you read
Children learn by watching the adults around them. And when you talk about what you are doing, you make it easier for your child to learn from you. If you are cooking, for example, you might say, "I'm looking for a cake recipe. I don't have time to read all the recipes in this cookbook, so I'm going to turn to the index in the back. Here under the letter C is a recipe for chocolate cake." Now your child understands more about how an index works.
