The importance of reading

A fun way to educate children is through reading books and tales. It is important to help kids develop a reading habit, as doing so brings incalculable benefits.

Reading helps children expand their imagination and learn about the world that sorrounds them, improve their vocabulary, enrich their language resources, and work their memory and concentration. All of this contributes to their mental agility and the learning of other cultures, bringing also academic benefits. Additionally, reading supports the expression of their ideas and feelings, which in turn helps generate empathy, understanding others and be more tolerant.

The discussion of how useful reading is started a very long time ago. Some do not ascribe any value to it, and others consider it a cureall that can make you a better human being. The truth is that the benefits that reading brings will be different for everyone, because we are all unique. What helps some can certainly hinder others. This is why we feel there are no recipes or rules set in stone.
