881 Always ask your son or daughter what book they would like to read. In no case do not impose your choice. For example, some girls do not like fairy tales about romantic princesses - they are more attracted to pirate adventures, stories about alien conquests and dinosaurs. Similarly, not all boys are interested in epic heroes.

  • If your child has already mastered reading skills, but still asks for a bedtime story, do not refuse. After a busy day at school, many first-graders are tired and find it difficult to perceive printed type. Take exciting fairy tales for 6-7 year olds and have a family reading session. The kid will listen to a fascinating story, and his eyes will rest from the load.
  • Praise your child for showing interest in a book. If he wants to discuss what he read, be sure to give him time. Listen carefully and answer the questions. In such conversations, children express emotions, share impressions and find out how our world is built.
  • Some babies don't like to read. Well, don't be afraid. It's worth waiting a while. The book should not be a burden. You can invite your child to listen to an audiobook or read aloud to him.
  • Please note that it makes no sense to convince a student of the benefits of books if the parents themselves do not tear themselves away from smartphones.
  • One more thing: a child gets bored with exactly those works that are offered at school. Try reading exciting fairy tales for children 8-9 years old from our section. Perhaps the world's bestsellers and their twisted plots will captivate the baby and change his attitude to literature.
  • Tales for children 4 and 5 years old (read online)

    The best leisure for a child 4-5 years old is, of course, reading. Fairy tales for children of this age are full of magic and will easily carry you into the book world.

      Books for little children

      At the age of 4-5 years the child has already learned a lot and has become more independent. Having mastered speech and self-service skills, he continues to actively explore the world around him. Every day, an inquisitive little why showers parents with dozens of “whys” and “what for”. The answers to many children's questions can be found in books. Reading aloud fairy tales for children 4-5 years old, mom and dad entertain, develop imagination and replenish their child's vocabulary.

      What fairy tales to read at 4 and 5 years old?

Reflecting on the actions of the heroes, the guys understand what behavior is worthy and what is not. In addition to life lessons, reading helps:

      • cultivate kindness and compassion;
      • deliver correct and expressive speech;
      • prepare your child for school.
