I have to agree with the other comments. I don't do any of the academics in my program because I was always taught in my ECE classes and all of my reading on my own, its not DAP.

If you include it in your program and make it fun, that's definitely your prerogative, but I wouldn't continue to try to get the parents to do any of it at home. Reading at night is a great way to get language, social, cognitive, etc in! Maybe your program could sort of make a thing about reading every night with the kids. That's a good middle ground.
