Why is reading to a child important?

Family Time Read Aloud

Reading books aloud can be a shared family event. Use this special time to bond with your children, especially if you have been away from them all day. Young siblings can sit alongside their parent and listen as mom or dad reads a story to a new baby. As children get older and start to read, encourage them to read the story to you or younger siblings.
