The more time you spend reading books to your child, the more storybook time you provide early on, the more they will get accustomed to the joy of reading.
On December 31st, the world joins together in a climactic countdown to the New Year. People are excited by the prospects and opportunities to start anew on each New Year. We often take part in the tradition of New Year’s resolutions around this time, in hopes to make the upcoming year even better than our last. We ask ourselves, what could 2015 mean for us? Or what can we mean in 2015?
As parents, New Year’s resolutions give us an opportunity to renew our sense of responsibility for our children’s future. We always try to improve the way we raise our children in order to ensure they are given the best chances in growing up right.
This New Year, we urge you to try and increase the amount of reading in your household. The more you read, the more storybook time you provide, the more your child can become accustomed to the joy of reading. The more your child reads each day, they will be improving their cognitive skills. Books are our best educators, and surrounding your child with books in 2015 is a great New Year’s resolution!
Making sure we keep up with our New Year’s resolution is easier than we think. We must create opportunities to succeed. When trying to increase your child’s amount of reading, there are a few easy steps you can take to ensure you keep up. As parents, we set an example for our kids and we can set an example of reading more. Pick up a book, and show your little one how it’s done! Also provide your child with plenty of books they will enjoy. 2015 is just around the corner and it’s time to make the most of it!
Happy New Year!
