Reading and sharing stories with children has so many developmental benefits. Children’s books foster and encourage the familiarity of sounds and word language, the way sentences are structured as well as the expansion of vocabulary. Children’s curiosity and imagination are sparked, as well as their understanding of empathy when they’re able to put themselves in the place of others to explore identity.

Reading to children also allows listening skills and concentration to develop, both of which flow into other areas of the learning curriculum to benefit children academically.
