Understanding Children's Way of Communication

Dear Reading in Redding,
Every living organism has a way of communicating its needs and responding to environmental changes. Children, as living organisms, also communicate in various ways since they cannot talk. As a parent, it is your responsibility to understand what your child means in his or her way of communication. Pediatricians recommend that parents start reading their children. Reading your child helps you understand his or her needs and expectations. It also you know what your child likes and dislikes for proper development. Reading to babies introduces them to a new way of communicating their needs. By reading to them, you teach them how to express themselves. Other benefits of reading to children include a faster grasping of language by kids, better bonding avenue for parents with their little ones, supported cognitive development, sped up language and communication skills, increased concentration, and advanced creative and imagination abilities, among many others. As you read to them, you need to relate what you are reading to things they already know. Utilizing such an approach will help them identify objects by relating them to what they already know. Therefore, you are supposed to begin by first understanding the language your child uses to communicate. Secondly, your reading should link to your child's language to help them understand what you mean.
An excellent approach that you can use for effective reading to your child is shared book reading. As Blewitt and Langan (2005) note, the practice is a beneficial method of word learning during children's early years of development. The success of shared book reading exercises depends on how you can capture your child's interest and attention for the longest time. As Blewitt and Langan suggest, you always need to provide prompt, contingent, and appropriate feedback to your child. You should ensure that you provide positive comments and responses, such as answering questions or even repeating a word, as it encourages them to learn continuously. When they make an error, you should carefully correct it to feel positive and want to continue, avoid bashing them hence demoralizing them. In the research, when the reader's extra-textual talk was designed to be more engaging, the outcome was more successful. That is exactly what you want to remember while helping the kids.
