One of the greatest things you can do for your child is read to them. It’s a wonderful habit to begin reading to your child from birth since it lays the groundwork for intellectual growth at a young age. Reading also helps young children to develop their social skills and vocabulary, as well as foster creativity and imagination. In this blog post, I’ll provide you with our complete list of preschool books, which includes more than 100 popular and classic children’s books your youngster will undoubtedly enjoy!

Reading Aloud to Your Child
As a mom to 4, former early childhood teacher, and daughter, and granddaughter of teachers, we’ve always had tons of books. Books we bought and books from the library. Maybe you can relate?
From a young age, I dreamt of being an author and loved (when I was in junior high) when my mom would drop me off at the library to read when she ran her errands.
When our kids were little I read to them all the time. It was one of our favorite things to do! Each child requested that I read their personal favorite books over and again.
It was a lot of fun to share the love of reading (and snuggle time!) with them from the moment they were born.
