We hope this information will be helpful to you, in making reading to your child a more fulfilling experience for both you and your child!

The Benefits of Children's Stories

http://www.littleonesreadingresource.com/childrens-stories.html
Rating: 13
Summary: This site enumerates how "parents who read childrens stories aloud to their kids provide a strong, positive influence and build a foundation for a lifetime of significant benefits," and then lists " the significant ways in which reading stories aloud to kids will change their lives . . . and yours."
We chose this site because we believe that if parents know how reading to their children can be beneficial to both them and the child, that they will be more likely to do so.
