RE: How do you Help your Children Build a Rich Vocabulary Day by Day?

Very true, if a little obvious. I also think parents who have a wide vocab give their kids a head-start, as they're able to pass that on.

More impressive when a kid with a harder background gains a love of language thanks to books, a great school, teacher, etc

Yes, just like with my sister @sarahdandridge and me, our passion to learn English and our own language was because of the foundations that our father laid in us. He was my inspiration, and indeed, left a legacy for us, and that is, our education. He said that education and our faith and love for God were the only things that he could pass on to us. Despite hardship and lack of material things, too, he sent us to reasonably good schools where we had teachers that encouraged and inspired us to love reading.
