WRITTEN BY INGRID LINDQUIST
Do you remember your favorite childhood book? Some of my favorites were The Giving Tree, The Very Hungry Caterpillar and Where the Wild Things Are. If being read to as a kid did not make an impact on me, I would not be able to list those titles so effortlessly. However, being read to by my parents is one of the things I remember most fondly from my childhood. I remember the soothing tone of my mom’s voice, the different voices my dad did for each character and the warm glow of our reading lamp blanketing me with feelings of comfort and nostalgia. Even during times of stress and tragedy, such as my parents’ divorce, being read to provided me with a feeling of consistency, security and love. No matter what your family may or may not be going through, reading is a great way to bring you together, build trust and give your little ones a consistent sense of stability and safety. Reading a story at bedtime, naptime or mealtime can help your child feel that the day has a predictable schedule, even in unpredictable times. The ritual of reading gives your kiddo something to look forward to each day, while also providing you with a nice activity to give your child undivided attention, making them feel reassured and safe. We all want our children to feel secure, and reading aloud is a tried-and-true way to help your family and little ones experience these comforting feelings.
