Although not always the easiest thing in the world after a long and tiring day, reading out loud to your children can have a number of benefits. Whether in the morning during breakfast or at night right before bed even dedicating a few minutes a day to reading to your children can help them to develop their love of books and the spoken and written word while also bringing you closer together.
Reading is a great habit to have and trying to pass down the love of reading can be difficult. Letting your children see and hear for themselves how much you enjoy it can help them to pick up a book. It can be a great way to help children relax and focus on something more then themselves.
