Advocating Reading to Children
Read to Them is a not-for-profit organization spearheading a movement that advocates reading to children for just fifteen minutes a day. Listening leads to understanding. The benefits of comprehension during this brief period of listening are well documented.
Reading to children sounds simple, but the results are complex and permanent. Children who learn to listen eventually learn to read, and literacy skills provide the basis for a lifetime of learning and productivity.
