Reading aloud to kids is one of my FAVORITE things to do! Learn more about the why it matters & how it impacts families 💙🐻📚@HumbleISD_lib @HumbleISD_GE #thehumblelibrarian

[Humble ISD @HumbleISD]

Reading aloud is one of the most powerful ways parents can support their child's growth, building vocabulary, background knowledge, empathy, and a strong foundation for school success. Just fifteen minutes a day of focused read-aloud time can make a lasting difference. 📖💡

In episode 54 of Ask an Expert, @HumbleISD_GE Librarian Susan Mitchell shares practical tips to help families make read-alouds both fun and effective for children of all ages.
