Bebecost, books and readings for the little ones

From what moment is it interesting to encourage reading among our children? I'll just tell you that, if you haven't started yet, it's time. They are never too small to be in contact with books, with stories. Therefore, the idea of ​​a Baby Reading Club, which might seem absurd, makes sense.

The same goes for this "Bebecost" workshop, a reading program of the City Council of Oviedo for children between zero and three years old that aims to stimulate the different reading stages, from the first contacts with the book as an object to the conversion of literary language into a vital and creative instrument.

The benefits of encouraging early reading are manifold, although when we talk about babies, maybe instead of talking about "reading," we could talk about "books" or "stories." Promotion of books, contact with them, with stories, with magazines, with their pages full of drawings, colors and letters, on paper or on screen ...

And encourage stories, stories, fables, poems, babysitters ... that mom or dad tell him and sing to him, read or improvise him.

This contact with books and stories it will make children grow interested in them, and in the future children with a settled reading habit not only get better school results, but, and most importantly, trust their abilities, are more creative and imaginative and have no difficulty read.

Remember that the family environment is the most influential in the promotion of reading habits in children, and that they learn by our example. If you read, they read, as the campaign said.

Have an opportunity like the one it offers the "Bebecost" workshop It is one more way to approach books with children, even with babies, since it is oriented at ages between zero and three years.

In addition, we can go to the libraries any day and have at home books for babies, such as books for the bathroom, plastic stories, lapels, with sounds, for coloring, for trimming ... Have books always at your fingertips it's a great idea.

Choose the moment well, spend a little reading every day, sing with them when they grow up, read with them, help them understand their first readings, encourage them to draw after listening to songs or stories ... are some ways to continue awakening the interest of the reading.

The Bebecost workshops to encourage reading among the little ones They take place until December in Oviedo, in different libraries. Do not miss any of the sessions if you have the opportunity.
