We know everyone loves a good picture book, but do We know everyone loves a good picture book, but do you know the SIX important things reading them does for your child? 1️⃣ Develops language Picture books help children understand that words have meaning, by connecting what they see in the pictures to the written words on the page. 2️⃣ Grows reading comprehension - The pictures share important context and details that young readers may not yet be able to infer from the words. Children learn that these pictures are visual clues to the story. 3️⃣ Expands sequencing ability - Children look at the pictures to discover what will happen next and make predictions. They also use pictures to remind them what has just happened. This helps children identify beginning, middle, and end parts of a story, along with the key skills of being able to summarize a plot. 4️⃣ Deepens a love of reading - The fun and joy of reading is sparked by time together in picture books. Colorful and engaging pictures help hold a child's attention as they discover the magic of literacy. Being with a caregiver, experiencing a story together creates powerful multi-sensory memories and positive emotions around reading. 5️⃣ Builds empathy and social-emotional learning - We often find safe approaches to complex subjects like grief, fear, anger, friendship building, taking risks, cultural differences, and more within the pages of story books. They offer outlets for emotions and launching pads for discussion through characters children can identify with or learn from. 6️⃣ Encourages conversations and connections - As the pages turn and questions are asked, child and parent or teacher connections are built. A conversation starts around a picture, a theme, or a new word. We also find repetition in many picture books which lets children be involved in the telling of the story.
