Early education is critical because it occurs at such a pivotal point in a child’s development. This #NationalFamilyLiteracyMonth, parents can read to their children as a way to both spend quality time together and encourage the healthy development of young minds. Our Director of Childcare Tricia Gooden says,

“Reading books aloud to children stimulates their imagination and expands their understanding of the world. It helps them develop language and listening skills and prepares them to understand the written world.”

Here are a few book suggestions parents can use to get started:

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by Bill Martin

Lola at the Library by Anna McQuinn

I Will Not Read This Book by Cece Meng

ABC T-Rex by Bernard Most
