Being a teacher, I’ve always had questions from parents on how to choose the correct book for their child.
I’ve always guided them and succeeded many times. It was possible only by understanding the interest of my students. Reading doesn’t always mean stories. Some of my students just don’t like to listen to stories in class, so we cannot expect them to read story books.
To understand which books we need to buy for our kids, we must observe their interests. Getting something that fascinates them, and glues them to reading is very important. Once we know where the interest of our child lies, we can buy them more books as per their age. Every age has different learning requirements.
These are the kind of books that have more pictures and can be read to the kids by parents. The major learning from these books is building basic language skills in the young ones and making them understand shapes and colours.
Some examples of Board Books are:
These books too will have lots of illustrations to make the kids read and imagine. Young phonics readers who know the basic sounds, with or without the help of the parent, can try reading such books. Children at this age inculcate values and thus need to read moral books too.
Some examples of moral value picture books are:
Now here comes the time when parents need to make the decision to choose books according to the child’s age. Some kids would love to read fantasies, others would read non-fiction.
These books will involve the kids and their emotions while reading. Little girls would like to read fairy tales, some would like to know about superheroes, while others would like to explore space.
Some examples of early reader books are:
These books are for children who can read by themselves and love some challenges in reading. They enjoy reading fiction books, especially those with series of it. Children at this age, however, can be distracted by lots of different activities. But if they develop the habit and love for reading, then trust me, as a parent, you will have nothing to worry about.
Some examples of chapter books are:
These are for the teenaged years where parents play a very important role. We need to guide them to the right sort of reading. Let’s make reading a habit for them. Let them find peace and calmness in reading. Thus gift your teens books, encourage them to read and let them find peace in it. The benefits of extensive reading are many, it can build a good personality overall.
Some novels which I would recommend are:
Give your child the exposure to reading. Exposing children to diversity in books will prepare them for life in diverse world. Hope this helps. Happy Reading.
