Reading to your child has many benefits one of which is simply having time to snuggle together.

Here are 10 reasons to read to your child.



1.When you read to your child, he/she will learn that reading is important to you, therefore reading will become important to him/her.



2.The more your child hears sounds, the better he/she will process these sounds into words. When a child is preschool/kindergarten age the listening word starts to become the written word.



3.Reading has a calming effect on a restless or fussy baby. Who doesn't want an easy way to calm a fussy baby?



4.Reading is a wonderful before bed routine. Studies have shown that a child will thrive in an atmosphere in which routines are present.
