Early reading ignites creativity, sparks curiosity, and stimulates the imagination in young children. Often, this leads to role-play as children grow which helps to develop other skills such as empathy and problem-solving.
Everyday at Little Leaps we provide stories within play, during group times, 1:1 with staff or with our peers. For International Children’s book day we each took it in turns to pick a story to read. Our favourites of the day were beauty and the beast and Snow White. “That’s a lovely ending” one child said after an adult had finished reading.
