What book should I read to a 1-year-old?
1-year-old children will love board books as these have a nice, chunky feel and will be easy for them to hold and turn. Books with full-page illustrations, simple sentences, and rhyming words will be hits with young toddlers.
Can a 3-year-old start reading?
While a 3-year-old may not be able to read entire words, they can definitely understand what they see on a page, identify letters, and even predict what will happen next. As meaning-making is one of the most important parts of reading, make sure you have a well-stocked collection of children's books at home.
Why is it important to read to toddlers?
Children's books are important for kids to pick up new words, think of the world in different ways, and learn to speak and empathize with others around them. Toddlers books will not only hone your child's vocabulary but will spark their imagination, creativity, and be an excellent way for you to bond with them!
