Read Early, Read Often

Reading aloud to children has been called the single most important activity. The best time to begin reading to your child is when he or she is an infant. Did you realize if you spend an average of 1 hr. reading and talking to your child daily, their vocabulary will increase by 8,000 to 10,000 words?
