Hasbro Children's Hospital Parenting Guide:
Reading Tips for Parents
Even babies and young children enjoy books and learn from sharing
books with adults. Make it part of your regular bedtime routine to
turn off the TV for a few minutes and share books.
Reading to kids has many benefits.
Some benefits of reading to babies and young children:
- Sharing books with babies and young children can help them learn
to talk and improve language skills.
- Sharing books can help young children get ready to listen and
learn in school.
- Regular bedtime routines started with babies and young children
help prevent future bedtime struggles.
- Teaching children how to fall asleep alone by putting them in
bed when they are still awake helps prevent them from waking up
in the night.
