Fun With Books!

Children seem to develop language so effortlessly and joyfully! There are many fun ways to stimulate language development using books.

Here are a few ideas to help children appreciate the written word:

Teach a love and respect for books

Show them the way. The way you view and care for books will be communicated to your children.

Create a cozy corner to read

Either in your home or in your child’s bedroom, create a cozy corner to read together. Make it a fun and inviting place to share books together.

Let your child read

While reading together, allow your child to read or tell you the story. Stimulate imagination by creating stories together.

Variety of book genres

Share a variety of book genres with children—from silly stories to fun facts to favorite recipes.

Enjoy them all. You will be communicating the value of print with them.

Happy reading!
