Benefits of reading aloud to our children
Mothers have a special knack for knowing what’s good for their children. I think that’s a major reason story time has been so universally honored, in every generation and culture. As we cuddle our child onto our lap and turn to the first page, we are reassured that our time is well spent, and that we’re doing something profoundly significant.
Why is this so? What exactly are the benefits of reading aloud to our children?
1. Most importantly, story time offers the opportunity to build a closer relationship with your child. Nestled comfortably in your favorite chair, you can
ask and answer questions,
find joy in your child’s unique personality,
explore and guide interests and talents,
teach important life skills in a supportive environment.
2. Children pick up essential language skills when we read to them.
Pre-school children learn to talk by mimicking sounds made by others. Reading gives them something to emulate, and helps them master the basic syntax of language.
Too, with the help of a good story children go beyond simple talking and, through fictional characters, learn how to interact with others.
3. Reading aloud promotes logical thinking skills, and allows your child to
Learn basic functions of arts, science, and economics,
Find solutions to everyday problems,
Vicariously experience the results of choices,
See the difference between right and wrong.
4. Story time encourages a child’s ability to concentrate.
If a child wishes to hear a story, they learn to sit quietly still. This simple rule of nature works to their advantage as they focus attention on subjects of personal interest.
5. Reading can help your child adjust to change and growth.
From potty training to kindergarten,
Friends to bullies,
Unfamiliar food to moving day,
Books are available to help us reassure our child that everything will be all right. Thus, their horizons expand as they integrate new experience into life.
6. Reading helps a child relax and get ready for a peaceful night’s sleep.
Including a bedtime story into your child’s evening routine sets up a predictable pattern that helps everyone settle down.
Now you know just a few of the extraordinary benefits of reading to your little child! I hope you’ve reached the same conclusion I did many years ago—that priceless rewards await when we take the time to read. Besides, it’s fun!
