GET YOUR CHILDREN USED TO READ BOOKS!

Since it is known that books feed children emotionally the most, its contribution to their development cannot be ignored. Books teach the child to question life while transferring different life styles to the mind of the child. The illustrations in the book open the doors of the imagination to the child, and enable the development of visual skills. By identifying himself with the character in the book, he strengthens his ability to manage his emotions. In short, the book plays a big role in every aspect of the child's development.

How should the book selection be made in line with all these teachings?

When choosing a book, you should first consider your child's interests. The language, content, illustrations and print quality of the book are the criteria you should pay attention to. You should research beforehand whether there is a suitable book for your child, and if possible read all of them.

What can be done to make reading a habit?

You can start by creating family reading hours. This action, which is one of the most effective ways, will be an activity that will encourage your child to read. But forcing your child to read at the same times of the day can be counterproductive, as the book can be read anytime and anywhere. Deciding the reading hours himself will give more effective results.

Children who read books are much more successful in lessons.

The success of children who grow up by reading books is a proven fact. Children who read books better understand what they read, read quickly, improve their interpretation, and have a wide vocabulary. All of these are a great support to be successful in education and business life.

When you, as a parent, include books in your life first, your child will see you as a role model and will devote a large space to books in his own world. When you talk about the book you read in your conversations with your child, you encourage reading. It is not possible for a child who sees his/her parents reading and reading books around him/her to stay away from it. Be sure to read a book with your child. Whenever possible, go to bookstores, book fairs and give him the right to choose in book selections. Make you feel how much you value books by organizing your library at home together.
