Comprehension skills in reading are vital for children aged 5-6, as they lay the foundation for lifelong learning and academic success. At this age, children are not only learning to read but also reading to learn. Strong comprehension skills enable them to understand the stories and information they encounter, enhancing their creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving abilities.

Parents and teachers should care about these skills because children who comprehend what they read are more likely to develop a love for reading. This love translates into better school performance and improved vocabulary. Furthermore, comprehension skills promote cultural awareness and empathy, as children learn to understand different perspectives through storytelling.

Additionally, fostering comprehension early on helps identify any learning challenges. Early intervention can address these difficulties and ensure that all children have the support they need to thrive academically.

Active engagement during reading—asking questions, discussing characters, and summarizing stories—creates a rich reading environment. By prioritizing comprehension skills, parents and teachers collaborate to nurture confident, capable readers who can approach complex texts throughout their education and beyond. This investment is not just about academic success; it's about equipping children with the tools they need to navigate and understand the world.
