"Singing helps your child get ready to read."

It may not seem like much, but singing songs with your child is a natural way to learn language skills. According to Every Child Ready to Read @ Your Library, songs help children develop listening skills, break down words to hear the individual sounds, and help them to learn new words. Sing songs with lots of repetition and hand gestures so that your child can join in on the fun and begin to anticipate the sequencing of the songs, such as Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star and The Wheels on the Bus.
