Before KindergartenÂ
Vicki at the library encourages ever parent with small children to participate in their 1000 Books Reading Program. Reading to your child at an early age helps your child succeed in school. Babies and young children are like sponges. Their minds soak in practically everything in their environments. During reading story time, their minds are at work, taking in and absorbing all the vocabulary they hear. Reading creates bonding between the child and parents, develops listening skills, it builds cogitative and language development, expands their vocabulary, develops their attention span, and also has potential to create a lifelong reader.
