"You are never too old, too wacky or wild...to pick up a book and read to a child!" - Dr. SEUSS

World book day...
Always make time to read!
Don't forget to READ every day!

Reading to your child(ren) daily, holds massive benefits for their language development!
Shared reading with children is a fun and easily accessible activity that does not require a lot of preparation, time or money.

- Follow the child's lead and let them choose a book to read together.
-Let them tell you WHY they chose that specific book.
- Look at the cover page and discuss what the book will be about (e.g. This book is about a shark that is sad.)
- Let them help you turn the pages.
- Read the story / discuss the pictures - adapt the way you 'read' the book according to your child's age.
- Ask questions about the story (e.g. ' Why is he sad?)
- Let them show you items by pointing to pictures (e.g. ' Where is the shark?')
- Have FUN!

Choosing an appropriate book and reading it with a child using language strategies, can facilitate joint attention (the process of sharing an experience of observing by following gaze or pointing gestures) and language by allowing repetition and practice of phrases and concepts in the text. It is a nice activity that can be incorporated into your nightly routine at home.
