Children have vivid imagination. Within a minute they can travel from one world to another with their mind’s eye. So, we should judiciously choose books for children and hold their hands while they take first step to this new world. Reading books can enhance their mental capabilities.
“There are many little ways to enlarge your world. Love of books is the best of all.”
As a parent sometimes we find it difficult to make kids read books. Telling them straight away to say “Start reading” or “Why don’t you read a book or novel ?” Or “Why don’t you read books ?? “can make them shut their eyes from reading permanently.
Hence reading books need to be introduced in an interesting and creative manner. Even books should be chosen according to their interests and their capacities. There are many ways by which reading help the children to grow.
