Providing age appropriate books are very important. Children who can not read and depend on you to read to them require books that have bright colorful pictures so the child can identify characters that you are reading about. Older children who are able to read may prefer chapter books that do not have as many picture in them.
Teenagers who love to read prefer to have novels or books that do not have any pictures at all.
When a child reads, they are gaining knowledge. A child views the contents of books differently than an adult. Children use their imaginations and if the parent has an imagination, they can use it to play the "what if" game with the contents they have read. It is not only fun to read books it can also be educational.
Children are not born reading. It is a skill that must be taught. There are some children who can teach themselves to read by parents reading the same story over and over again. They learn to recognize the words and soon they are reading on their own. This impresses many parents. Reading is something that is taken for granted; you use this skill every moment of your life. The more you encourage your child to read, the better their chances of having a successful life.
At work you use reading skill to gather important data, to write a business report and even when you are driving home.
Providing different types of reading materials will assist your child with language skill because you are exposing them to a larger vocabulary. It is very easy for you to explain what the new words mean, and your child is gaining a wealth of information. When you read to your child aloud, you are also assisting them in the proper pronunciation of the words.
Your child will soon be using the new words that they have learned not only in sentences, but also in the right context.
Books provide hours of reading enjoyment for children of all ages. They are able to use their imaginations and dream of far away places. From pirate ships to fairy princesses, there are millions of books for kids of all ages.
Teaching your kids the importance of reading when they are young will give them the fundamental basics that will assist them through their lives.
