Helping to bring their imagination to life, books inspire, educate and encourage children to exercise their mind. International Children’s Book Day 2020 is designed to do just that and celebrate reading.
Reading books can help a child to learn and develop, and this can be difficult in certain parts of the world due to deprivation.
Benefits of International Children’s Book Day
The benefits of taking part in International Children’s Book Day are synonymous with the benefits of reading as a whole. Some of them include:
1. Brain exercise - reading engages and exercises the brain, helping it to better make neural connections.
2. Vocabulary improvement - the amount of terminology that a child uses and possesses can increase with regular reading.
3. Empathy and imagination - reading opens children up to new horizons, helping them think outside the box and engage with the outside world in ways they had not done previously.
4. Morale improvement - it should not be forgotten that reading is fun! Taking part in it will boost a child’s morale and uplift their mood.
