Learning to read is important!

Reading is the foundation for the majority of our society. It's important to read to your children and start at a young age. When you read to your kids it forms a special bond between you that you will cherish forever. Many personality traits can be developed from reading such as confidence, a mature vocabulary, comprehension, reading inspires you to learn more and be more involved in acedemics.

It's important to start reading to your children at an early age. Typically people learn to read before, during, or around preschool. Reading starts in the home. If you read to your child every night they start to look forward to it and get excited about books and stories, and it opens their imagination. Reading is so important in schools that they have library time and they learn how to check out books, and learn all about things like the Dewey Decimal System. Once they're in school they have circle time and teachers read to the students, and then as they begin to read they start checking out books with less pictures and eventually start reading chapter books, and they have rewards in school for good reading.

Reading is so important for youngsters for many reasons, but one strong characteristic they obtain from reading is confidence. When a child is able to read comfortably in class it releases any fear of being made fun of, and makes them feel like a leader, inturn making them want to read more, learn more, be an A student. Kids will carry that confidence into other subjects and it will show as a prime personality trait throughout school and also adulthood.

The more you read the better at it you'll get and the better at it you are the more you'll love it. Once you have a love for reading you will feel comfortable to read a variety of material. Your vocabulary will increase with more variety and you will develop a mature vocabulary. Having a mature vocabulary makes it easy and less stressful to be social and gives you confidence in interviews or just with people in general.

Like I said before, the more you read the better at it you will get. Learning to read is like learning to ride a bicycle. You're going to be slow and stumble a lot in the begining, you might even crash, but the more times you get back up and keep going the better you will get and eventually you will be riding in races. It's important to teach kids how to read when they are young because you want them to do great in school and have confidence and have the desire to learn more all the time.
