READING MATTERS NO MATTER WHAT AGE

Summer is a time for sunshine, fun, and making memories—but it's also the perfect time for children to keep their minds sharp through reading. When school is out, reading often takes a backseat to vacations and playtime. But did you know that kids can lose valuable reading skills over the summer months if they don’t continue practicing?


That’s why encouraging children to read during the summer is so important. Just 20 minutes a day can help prevent the “summer slide” and keep young minds growing. Whether it’s a trip to the library, a quiet corner with a good book, or a fun reading challenge, summer reading builds vocabulary, strengthens comprehension, and boosts imagination.


Make it a family habit—read together, talk about books, and let your child choose stories that excite them. When reading becomes an adventure, kids stay motivated to learn all year long. Let’s turn summer into a season full of stories!
