What\’s different about children who love reading?

In the past few years, I have been working hard to promote parent-child reading. As a result, the more you do it, the more addictive you become. Because when I receive feedback from many parents, I feel happy inside. Many children begin their reading journey and can listen to their mother tell a story before going to bed. Or when mom is busy with housework, she can find a book and read it quietly. The joy in the mother’s heart and the happiness of the child are the gifts brought by parent-child reading. What does reading bring to children? What\’s different about children who love reading? When children are young, small steps cannot reach far distances. But there is another way for children to touch the world, and that is reading. Because there is a special world hidden in the book, when the child understands it. His world has actually grown up. This is insight. Yes, reading will first bring knowledge to children. Through reading, children can understand things outside their immediate surroundings and see the richness and diversity of the world. Will you even think about whether there are aliens outside the earth? Do you wonder how polar bears survive the cold winter? Through reading, you can have conversations with those great souls in history, your thoughts can collide, and sparks of independent thinking can arise. Reading is like looking at the world from the shoulders of giants. It will broaden a person\’s horizons, broaden his horizons, broaden his mind, and broaden his future path. When a child has the ability to think independently and a pattern of life, it is a wealth that will never be used up in a lifetime. Reading can bring children a lasting happy experience. Can reading bring happiness to children? Many people deny it and think that playing can bring happiness. Of course, children have a lot of happiness. They will be happy when they receive gifts from their parents, they will be happy when they eat what they like, and they will be as happy as a puppy when they go for a walk and run in the park with their favorite friends. However, children can also get happiness from reading, and once this happiness is obtained, it will last forever. I have a lot of books at home, and sometimes I worry about putting pressure on my children. But he doesn\’t seem to be under any pressure. He will find a few books he likes, and then read them on the sofa, entertaining himself alone. If you encounter something you don’t understand, just ask us. At first, his grandma thought it was inappropriate to read to her children because reading at such a young age was too tiring. Later, after she listened to the little guy telling her a few picture book stories, she felt that there were such good stories and such good-looking books. She also began to think that reading was good, and she also taught reading to the parents of the children who came to my house. The benefits are there. Nao Matsui, the father of Japanese picture books, mentioned in his book \”The Seeds of Happiness\”: \”Picture books are not for learning, but for feeling happiness.\” I think as long as parents know how to do it, they should not force their children to read. Let your children start reading naturally and they will definitely feel happy. Children who love reading will have better concentration. Many mothers say that their children cannot sit still, but they can sit still when playing with iPad. In fact, when the child was playing games, he was indeed seated and focused. But once he enjoys the exciting experience brought by the game, he will definitely not be able to calm down when faced with a quiet book without any sound effects. Unable to concentrate even in class. If you have been addicted to the world of video games as a child,If you stay away from books, the probability of falling into online games in primary school is much higher, because these children only know the joy of video games and never smell the fragrance of books. This huge responsibility lies with the parents themselves. You may not know why your child is slowly falling behind. I don’t even know when the child started to change. Because of your neglect, bad seeds have been planted in your children during the critical period of developing habits. A question that many parents are concerned about is when can they start reading to their babies? At this time we have to define reading for babies. Because we generally think that reading is reading a book with our eyes. But reading for babies is not like this. Children can see with their eyes, listen with their ears, and even touch with their hands and smell with their noses. That’s why some parents say they can’t read to their babies. In fact, it is a misunderstanding, a one-sided understanding of the way of reading. Many people give gifts to children as young as a few months old, which include toys besides clothes. There are countless kinds of rattles and even sound and light toys in maternal and child stores. But are these suitable for little ones? In fact, it is better to give the child a simple branch without a sharp tip, or a few leaves. Hold him and look at the clouds and touch the grass. Take out a cloth book and give it to him to rub, or take out an interactive board book and point to the colors and patterns on it. Or talk to him or read nursery rhymes. These early contacts and stimulation will not bring any burden or pressure to the child. On the contrary, it will gradually develop their relationship with books and develop the habit of reading. No matter what age you are, when choosing books for your children, you must consider their interests. Instead of reading some books to your children that they have no interest in at all according to your own wishes, they will be resisted by the children. They will tell their parents through inattention, refusal and other behaviors, \”I don\’t like this book!\”, \”I read it!\” don\’t know!\”. You can choose some special-shaped books or toy books for babies aged 0-3 years old. The themes are mainly about understanding simple things around you, such as the baby\’s body, the baby\’s movements, animals, plants, and daily necessities that the baby is familiar with. Most boys like books about cars and dinosaurs, and parents can also follow their favorites. For older children, many parents refer to the book list given by the teacher when choosing books for their children. Of course, many schools choose very interesting books for children. But it does not rule out that some teachers prescribe book lists that are too focused on famous works. At this time, the child does not like to read. In fact, reading to children must be diverse. I personally think that we can mainly respect the children’s wishes when choosing, and at the same time give them some reference suggestions. For example, when buying books, you can discuss it with your children and let you make the decision, but you have to consider your parents\’ suggestions. And when it comes time to really decide, the choices can be diversified. For example, you can have comics and novels, but you also need to have good-looking masterpieces and classic reading materials. Sometimes, parents want their children to read the four classics, so they buy them all for their children. But children just like comics and popular campus novels. As a result, the parents were so angry that they either ignored it or fought against it. This diversification starts from an early age. Just like if your child has a bad picky eating habit, you should let your child taste more when he is young. Good appetite, you can really taste richerfood. The same goes for reading. Children who love reading will not be fine, but children who love reading will definitely be different – there will be more sparkling things in their eyes, more question marks in their minds, and more smiles on their faces , their gestures will be more scholarly, and their hearts will be filled…
