Benefits of children reading

Reading....a thing that we learn at school from small.If we want to get more knowledge, we can not leave the word ' reading' .There are many benifits of reading.Don't care the type of books we read,normally every book got thier knowledge to learn.Reading a comic also can learn some new thing based to the story.Below are the benefits of children reading.

Language and speech development:
Reading to a child makes it easier for him/her to develop speech. As a matter of fact, I recommend that parents read to children with is speech delays as part of the treatment.

Vocabulary and pronunciation:
By looking at a picture in a book or a word and then hearing how it is pronounced out loud, children can learn new words along with their pronunciation.

Preparing for school:
Children are ready to go to school when they can attend or listen to what someone else is saying, learn and participate in structured situations such as story reading and focus in and listen to one central person in the classroom. Reading to a child is great way to prepare a pre-schooler for the school environment. On a higher level, children will get used to hearing stories and following sentences. This will be very helpful when they start to learn about grammar and sentence structure.

Bonding time:
Reading to a child is also an ideal opportunity for a parent to spend some time with their child. Reading time can be perceived as "their time!" I suggest that parents get down and spend time with their children at their level. Reading an interesting children's story to them accomplishes this.

Part of a routine:
Reading to children before bed time becomes a nice pre-bed time ritual or routine. Children tend to have an easier time going to sleep if there is a set routine. For example: brushing the teeth, have a story read to them and then fall sleep.

Life-long benefits:
As a children gets older, they will read on their own, building on the interest and experience of being read to for years. This sets off a life-long interest/aptitude in reading which comes in handy in any aspect of our lives especially during the formative school years right through college and beyond.

Remember,if all of the people in a country don't like reading,it will not bring any development to the country.Reading makes the future.
