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

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.
