While technology offers many benefits and is often convenient, it can't replace the warmth, connection, and educational value a parent reading to their child offers. Reading together fosters bonding, stimulates imagination, and builds important language and cognitive skills and lasting memories. #reading #readingaloud #parent #homeschool #homeschooling #earlyyears
In 'Yuri and the Jungle Ribbon,' we're reminded that true joy isn't found in possessions, but in the precious bonds we share with loved ones. While material things may bring fleeting pleasure, the warmth of family and friends truly lights up our lives. Let's treasure those connections and celebrate the moments that truly matter. #reading #kidsbooks #childrenbooks #teachers #childcare
Octavio Paz was a Mexican poet and writer known for his insightful perspectives on culture, identity, and intellectual exploration. This quote reflects his views.
Paz believed genuine intellectual growth comes from questioning and challenging beliefs, ideas, and perspectives. By learning to doubt or question things, individuals can cultivate a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them. This process involves examining multiple angles or perspectives rather than accepting things at face value. Questioning is not just a tool for reflection but a powerful instrument that allows individuals to critically analyze information from different points of view, empowering them to develop their own informed opinions. It encourages an active and independent approach to learning and understanding. #writers #quoteoftheday #quotes #quotestoliveby

Victor Hugo's quote beautifully captures the power of literacy. Learning to read ignites a flame within us, sparking curiosity, imagination, and understanding. Each word and syllable become a gateway to new worlds, ideas, and perspectives.
Reading opens avenues for personal growth and development, allowing to explore diverse cultures, histories, and concepts. Besides, with reading children not only decoding words, but they are also comprehending their meaning and context. Children will learn through reading critical thinking skills, vocabulary, knowledge, and the ability to communicate effectively.
The riddles are good for children because they help develop critical thinking, problem solving and creativity and of course they are fun.
Las adivinanzas son buenas para los niños porque ellas ayudan a desarrollar pensamiento crítico, resolución de problemas y creatividad y por supuesto ellas son muy divertidas. |
