Reading
When a child reads well, and begins at an early stage – he is destined for success, both personally and academically. Every parent – Reading to your children is crucial and you should find every possible time to read together with them daily. A child has a better capacity to absorb stories, facts and details at a younger age than when they reach their teens.
You will be surprised at how creative you can be at finding time to read aloud to your child. Read while waiting to see the doctor, while waiting for the waiter to serve your meal, waiting in line at the store, or cooking dinner. Instead of watching the news, turn off the TV and read aloud. You can read aloud in the morning before school and, of course, at bedtime. Read a story aloud while waiting for the bus or train or once aboard. Make tapes of yourself or another family member reading stories and play them in the car on the way to school or daycare.
Here at SEEDS, we instill creative reading at an early stage. This is accompanied by story telling sessions accompanied with sound effects, question and answers and probing. We strive to instill the habit and love of reading to our children.
