Some may want you to read their favourite storybook from beginning to end. Some may just want to flip quickly through the pages. Some may try to “read” the book to you, pointing out pictures of interest or reciting memorized words or lines from the story. All of these are positive ways to share books together. What’s most important is that your child enjoys looking at books with you and that the experience leads to conversation and interaction between you and your child.  \nWhen reading with a preschooler, the main goals include:  \n1. Encouraging her interest in books and in sharing them with you  \n2. Learning about new words, ideas and concepts, especially those that broaden her understanding of her world and stimulate her imagination  \n3. Understanding and enjoying stories  \n4. Having fun!  \nTypes of books to read with a preschooler:  \n• Repetitive books – younger preschoolers may enjoy books with predictable, rhythmic language that repeats throughout the book. The language and repetition in these books will catch your child’s interest and make it easier to remember important words and sentences. Examples of repetitive books: “Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do you see?” by Bill Martin Jr.,“Goodnight Moon” by Margaret Wise Brown, or “Hand, Hand, Fingers, Thumb” by Al Perkins.  \n• Homemade books – which could include photos of favourite people or things, or objects or remnants from outings or interesting places they have been (such as a birthday party or a trip to the zoo) . See “Make a Book” at the end of this article for more ideas.  \n• Simple storybooks with a main character or a main event-the story should have a clear beginning, middle, and end. An example would be “The Very Hungry Caterpillar” by Eric Carle. The story of the Three Little Pigs is another example of a simple story which has a repetitive structure, making it easier for your child to follow along and understand the story. If  \nyour child isn’t interested in listening to the whole story at first, simplify it, or just talk about the pictures.  \n• Non-Fiction books – non-fiction books about interesting topics such as animals, occupations or how things work will expose your child to new vocabulary and provide new topics for conversation.  \nBooks to avoid:  \n• Lengthy, complicated storybooks, especially those without lots of illustrationsthese types of books often involve an understanding of more complex language than your child maybe ready for (especially younger preschoolers). And if there aren’t enough pictures to explain the story, your child may have a difficult time following along  \n• Electronic books – In a study comparing an e-book with the same story in a paper book version, researchers found that children learned more from the paper book [1] . The buttonsand games in the e-book distracted the children’s attention from the story. Read more about this study.  \nHow to share books with a preschooler  \n• Let your child choose the book – it’s okay to make suggestions from time to time, but allowing your child to choose the book you read ensures that your child is truly interested.  \n• Let your child hold the book and turn the pages – children love to be actively involved and to have some control over the book reading. Don’t worry if she skips some pages – the goal is to make the book an enjoyable experience and reading every page isn’t a “must” at this stage.  \n• Let your child “read” the book in her own way – some children look at a few pages or flip through the book for a few moments. Others want to look at the entire book. Let your child look at the book at her own pace and according to her interests. You don’t have to finish the whole book at one sitting!  \n• It's okay to change things up!–you don’thave to read every word on the page. You can simplify the story, or just talk","cbCaicyOzKq1Pvqx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicyOzKq1Pvqx","pdf",256123,"English","# Sharing books with a preschooler\n## Main goals of shared reading\n## Types of books to read\n### Repetitive books\n### Homemade books\n### Simple storybooks\n### Non-fiction books\n## Books to avoid\n## How to share books effectively\n## Adding Language to boost vocabulary","[{\"question\":\"What are the main goals when reading with a preschooler?\",\"answer\":\"The goals include encouraging interest in books and sharing, building vocabulary and understanding through new ideas and concepts, helping the child understand and enjoy stories, and ensuring the experience is fun.\"},{\"question\":\"Which types of books are recommended for preschoolers?\",\"answer\":\"Recommended options include repetitive books with predictable rhythmic language, homemade books featuring familiar people or objects, simple storybooks with clear beginnings/middles/ends, and non-fiction books about interesting topics like animals or how things work.\"},{\"question\":\"What should caregivers avoid when choosing books?\",\"answer\":\"Avoid lengthy, complicated storybooks, especially those with limited illustrations that make language harder to follow.
