The Benefits of Reading Early
The benefits of reading early are vast. Reading to your child establishes a strong foundation for literacy skills. It also helps promote brain development and fosters a love for reading. Reading early also helps children develop a better vocabulary and allows them to explore different worlds beyond their own.
Reading to your child is one of the simplest and most effective ways to help them get ahead in life. Make sure to take some time this fall to read some great books together!
How to Get Your Child Excited About Reading
It can be challenging to get your child excited about reading, but it’s definitely worth the effort. Here are a few tips to help you get started:
• Make it a Fun Activity: Reading doesn’t have to be a boring activity that takes place at a desk. Try reading in different locations, or makeup stories together.
• Find Books that Interest Them: Not all children will be interested in the same books. Find books that interest your child and read them regularly.
• Let Them Choose What They Read: Don’t pressure your child into reading something they’re not interested in. Let them choose their own books and read at their own pace.
Encouraging your child to read can be a challenge, but with a little effort, it can be an enjoyable experience for both of you!
