Kids' brains are rapidly developing and the most important and retentive age is from birth to age five. Reading aloud to our children is critical for their brain development. However, due to the advancement in technology and easy access to digital devices, parents hardly spend time reading aloud to their children anymore. This summer, take a break with your children, grab a hammock, and read a good book. Author of Seller of Dreams, Katrina Cheshire shares some exciting book options that toddlers to teens will love. If you do a little vetting on the books that you give your children, it will help them develop a Biblical worldview. This will give your family a strong foundation built on God’s truth and instill the love of reading at a young age!
