Do you read to your child? Does your child read to you? Do you feel the love and closness wrap itself around you. Do you feel this is a special time between the two of you. If the answer to these questions are yes, read on.
Reading empowers our children.
It is never to early to start reading to your children. Even babies through infancy love to listen to your soft voice as they snuggle in your arms and fall asleep.
When your infant becomes a child or older and refuses to read a book, do not discontinue the reading program you have already established. Children love it when you read to them. It's a wonderful one on one special time for you and your child to bond. The closeness you feel together will last forever. You do not need to spend money to read to your child. Go to the public library and check out books. You can explore the world together.
Reading makes your imagination soar and the world has no boundaries. You can become anyone you want to be. Through reading, you can visit any country in the world.
