Everyone loves a giveaway and this week I have 4 special children’s books valued at $52.00 gathered together in one package!
Are you reading to your young children every day?
I know statistics are boring to read, but this is important to know. The American Academy of Pediatrics has performed studies showing that reading to your children, beginning in infancy “stimulates brain development and helps to build key language, literacy and social skills.” They also state that more than one in three American children start kindergarten without the skills they need to learn to read.
Those are tragic numbers! I know our lives are busy, but if reading isn’t something you have been doing with your child, now is the time to start!
The books in this giveaway package are:
