My kids are big readers. One reads anything you put in front of him and the other only read what interests him. They are upstairs by 8:30pm with technology locked away. Nothing else to do but play with toys or read. Often I find them asleep in bed with a book at their side. Some benefits of children reading: * Supported cognitive development * Improved language skills * Preparation for academic success * Increased concentration and discipline * Improved imagination and creativity * Cultivating a lifelong love of reading
