Spending time with your child and a book builds bonds for a lifetime. The love, tenderness and curiosity it instills in them provide the foundation to become a happy, healthy and stable older child, and even adult.
When parents and caregivers read to children through books and stories, it helps them to think critically. It also helps children with their social and emotional development, promoting empathy and emotional intelligence as they learn about emotions, relationships and social situations depicted in books.
Early literacy - including language development, phonological awareness, print awareness, vocabulary building and reading comprehension skills - helps young children gain language and foundational reading skills during the early stages of childhood. It shapes a child's kindergarten readiness and puts them on the path to lifelong learning.
