Parents often wonder if reading to their baby or child is truly beneficial, or if they are just wasting their time. The fact is that reading to your baby or child can have a profound impact on their brain development. In the early years of life, the brain is growing and making connections at an astonishing rate. Reading aloud gives children a chance to hear language and learn about the world around them. It also helps them to develop important literacy skills such as letter recognition and vocabulary. Furthermore, reading together can be a bonding experience for parent and child. So, even though it may seem like a simple activity, reading aloud to your child can have a tremendous impact on their future success.
