I have no doubt whatsoever that reading to your child is an important and integral route to their learning, I have always spent time with my children doing this, and it becomes a habit that hopefully once they can read a bit for themselves they will be keen to choose books that they like for themselves.

Schools start by looking at pictures, and making up a story to go with that picture, I must admit that I find this a bit harder to do, but at least if you involve the kids in it, you'll be surprised how they each have an interpretation of the same picture, but see it a different way!
