Reach out and Read (www.reachoutandread.org) is an evidence based non-profit organization that partners with medical providers to promote early literacy. What seems like a simple, daily ritual, reading stories with your babies and preschoolers, has been shown to have a profound effect on success in school and life.
I read this article in the New York Times...http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/08/17/bedtime-stories-for-young-brains/?_r=2 that drove this fact home. I know as parents we are always second guessing the choices we make. But, reading to your child is one of those no brainer choices that will impact their lives forever!
