Welcome, and thank you for visiting our site! To access our resources, please see the below posts, where you will find: links to websites about reading to your child, a rating of each website, and a brief description of what the site contains. 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!
(Note: All our web links have been included on this website because they relate to Child Development in that: reading to children improves their literacy skills, and helps foster a love for reading, and learning to read is an important part of a child's cognitive development.)

Rating: 17
Site Summary:
"A child's success as a reader begins much earlier than the first day of school. Reading, and a love for reading, begins at home. Our tips for parents offer easy ways for parents to help kids become successful readers. Although we've divided these tips by age, many of them can be used with children at various ages and stages — we encourage you to choose the ones that work best for your child."
We chose this site because under their summary of the site there are five different links that are divided up into preschool through third grade that give specific tips for that grade level.
