Reading Resources for Young Children and Their Families
February is I Love to Read Month, and to celebrate, New Horizon Academy has put together a variety of resources from book logs to reading lists and blogs with reading advice. Of course, these resources can be enjoyed at any time of year, not just in February. In fact, reading should be enjoyed at all times of the year! At New Horizon Academy, early literacy is a focus of our research-based childcare curriculum, ensuring that children are well-prepared for reading success in kindergarten and beyond.
Whether you are celebrating I Love to Read Month or looking for fun ways to encourage reading at home with your infant, toddler, preschooler, or school-ager, here are a few reading resources to get you started!
