| Q: “We read regularly to our 2-year-old, but my sister is still reading aloud to her 12-year-old! How long should we plan to read aloud to our child?” A: Reading aloud is a wonderful, enriching family activity at any age. As your son grows and begins to be able to read to himself, he will still enjoy listening to you read books, particularly if they’re too challenging for him to read to himself. Reading aloud allows you to share your pleasure in books with each other for many years to come. |
