Take Them Online to a Children's Poetry or Children' s Story Website and Read with Them
There are many wonderful children's websites online offering both poetry and short stories. Children love being read to. It's proven that children who are read to develop a love for reading. One of my favorites: Barking Spiders Poetry for Children. My grandkids love the poetry and short stories there.
