How reading aloud empowers children – and brings joy to adults
The event is aimed at parents, grandparents, reading mentors, nursery and library staff and anyone who helps children grow up. A short presentation will show why reading aloud promotes children’s development and strengthens them. This will be followed by an entertaining presentation of picture books. There will also be tips on how to make reading aloud fun and easy to implement – whether at home, in the nursery or in the library. A book table offers the opportunity to browse and exchange ideas.
