Reading is without doubt the most important skill a child will
ever learn, and By developing a child’s interest in reading,
and assisting and developing the desire to learn to read, you
will be giving your child the gift to all knowledge. A child
who loves to read and reads well can learn ANYTHING!

The interest in reading is developed at a very young age, so it
is esential to Make time to read bedtime stores, and always Make
time at other time of the day, wherever possible, to sit and read
to your child. Simple, easy to understand children’s books with
colorful pictures as best for the youngest children.

It is also very important that you point to the words you are
reading as you read, this way you assist the child to learn
recognition of objects and colors by interacting during the
reading and pointing to the words in the book. Point to
the picture of a duck and tell the child, “This is a duck. The
duck is yellow”. After a few times of doing this, point to the
duck and ask the child what that picture is and what color the
animal is. Every soon, after grasping language skills, the child
will not wait for questions, but tell you “that duck is yellow!”

Always select books that teach a lesson about life. Books that will
teach children how to interact with other children without fighting;
books that teach about giving/sharing and good behaviour, are good
selections. Books that teach about responsibilities - how to cross
the street, never to get in a stranger’s car, never to steal, and
so one - are also great choices. These books should also be there
make reading enjoyable as well as educational.

All types of Children’s books, books that have absorbing content as
well as being easy to read are excellent choices and may well become
family favourites that you child will read to their child years later
in life. You will soon develop a child’s interest in all types of books
and will develop that “can’t wait to learn to read” attitude.

It is so important that a child learn to read early in life, this prepares
the child mind to accept the fact that it is a normal thing to do.
