Reading skills development for children aged 6-7 is crucial as this stage sets the foundation for lifelong learning. At this age, children transition from learning to read to reading to learn, which means their comprehension skills will significantly impact their future academic success. Strong reading skills enhance vocabulary, improve critical thinking, and foster creativity, facilitating better communication both written and verbal.

Parents and teachers should care about reading development because it lays the groundwork for not only literacy but also confidence. Children who read proficiently are more likely to engage in classroom discussions, enjoy a variety of subjects, and participate actively in their learning journeys.

Moreover, reading enables children to explore diverse cultures, ideas, and emotions, creating empathetic, well-rounded individuals. The act of reading together provides a shared experience that strengthens the bond between parents and children, creating a supportive environment that encourages exploration and curiosity.

Additionally, supporting reading development can close achievement gaps among different socioeconomic groups, ensuring all children have the tools they need for academic success. By prioritizing reading skills development, parents and teachers can empower children to become informed, engaged citizens who contribute positively to society.
