  • In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, Dr. Kathy discusses the vital role of reading aloud to children and its profound benefits on their development. Citing research from the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study, she highlights that a significant percentage of four-year-olds are not read to regularly, which can impact their vocabulary, reading comprehension, and motivation. Dr. Kathy shares insights on the positive outcomes linked to parents reading to their kids as young as one to two and a half years old, emphasizing that reading at least five books daily can expose children to an impressive 1.4 million words by the time they enter kindergarten. Tune in for practical tips on how parents can easily incorporate reading into their daily routines, fostering a love for reading and enhancing their children's literacy skills.
