Why Your Child Should Read Every Day

“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.”

 – Dr. Seuss

Dr. Seuss pretty much sums up why children love story time. Whether it’s before bedtime or on a lazy Sunday afternoon, a child who loves to read is already on the path to life-long success – here’s why:

Reason #1

No matter how old your little one is, reading wakens a number of regions in the left part of the brain - performing tasks that have to do with logic, such as in science and mathematics.

Even one chapter a day will ensure healthy brain and language development in your child, all you have to do is find what your child likes to read!

Reason #2

According to a study by the World Economic Forum, creativity is one of the top skills that individuals need to excel in the world of work. A growing body of research explores cognitive diversity, or diversity of thought, in improving effectiveness and problem solving which stems from reading on a consistent basis.

Reason #3

“Live life to express, not to impress.”

- Unknown

If you want your children to be able to draw on a rich vocabulary to express themselves clearly, get them to read. Since a book is essentially an expression of a writer’s thoughts - it is a blueprint for a child to express
