Why reading aloud is so important and how man does it right
Why reading aloud is so important and how man does it right
Children love stories. Reading aloud from the beginning promotes imagination and creativity, consolidates the parent-child bond with beautiful, cuddly moments and makes the child feel like reading later on. If one observes some rules for reading stories, it becomes a beloved ritual that accompanies parents and children for years.
Stories and fairy tales also have important language acquisition capabilities and help kids get to know the world. Fairy tales make a contribution to the development of one's own morality. Stories about daily life describe and explain everyday situations and prepare the child for doctor visits, kindergarten or sibling. To make reading aloud a real pleasure for you and your child, you should create some prerequisites, or observe certain rules.
Correct reading
Create a quiet atmosphere with as few background sounds as possible. Cuddly places like the sofa, a cozy armchair or the cot create a sheltered space for diving into history. Radio, TV or conversations by the way disturb only now.
Reading aloud at the right moment as a break and ritual. Reading stories is the end of the day to settle down or satisfy the childish need for closeness.
Let your child choose the story. By doing so you will respect the personality of your child and it will be with attention and pleasure in the matter.
Interim questions are allowed. Allow active listening: When your child has questions or thoughts about the story, talk to him about it, get involved in the child's emotional world. You will get to know it better.
Read actively, emphasize what you read according to the content: For example, the Wolf can have a loud and dramatically deep voice while the grandmother beeps shyly and brittlely. Your child will love you for bringing situations and characters to life with your voice.
Children's books are there for children. Accordingly, the child should be allowed to leaf through the book and, for example, be able to look at the pictures again.
Choose the place for children's books so that it is freely accessible to the child, and it can easily take a book for yourself and flip through it. This is how you make books a natural part of the child's life.
When choosing a book, you should take into account the interests of the child and either choose together with the child at the time of purchase or consider appropriate topics.

When children can read
If your child can then read at primary school age, the readership lessons are not necessarily over. You can start reading books together. This is fun and at the same time promotes the reading ability of your child. In order to encourage and retain reading enjoyment, never use reading as a punishment. If your child can read later, it must never be used as a criminal or educational tool. Do not force your child to read a book, that will not work. Give an example. It's best to animate your child to read for yourself if you do.
I´m looking forward to your experiences and additions.

What age did you'r kid actually started "listening" to the stories? Mine is just a bit over a year and I can't get his attention while reading for more than several minutes. (well, I guess that's expected for little ones like him)
with the age of one we had only short stories, i had a book with 365 night readings, i loved that book... with the age of 2,5-3 it starts to interact into the stories we read then. we both me and my wife dont "ONLY" read we do a storie about the readed stuff... So you re in a good way ;) Take a look for some really shorten night stories and you will get it.... The step away of this short story book was a first conversation about the Story of day before.... my daughter told me about it, and it was insane to see how much she know and her way to tell it ;)

great advice! Reading to my child is a treasured moment of life.
Sometimes for the more popular books with my son, I like to start reciting the pages from memory randomly throughout the day and let him continue on from his memory. He’s got several books pretty well committed to memory! This is with a 2 year old... might not be as cute/effective with an older child.
Yeah we do that too when we moived away from short night stories into normal books... also we talk about the happening for the day before, so you doin well ;)
