Parents and teachers should prioritize reading improvement for children aged 4-6 because early literacy skills are foundational to a child's overall development and future academic success. At this critical stage, children's brains are rapidly developing, making them more receptive to learning new skills. Enhancing their reading abilities can significantly impact their language skills, vocabulary development, and comprehension, setting the stage for their future academic journey.

Moreover, children who develop strong reading skills during these formative years are more likely to excel in school, have better communication skills, and gain confidence in their abilities. Early reading experiences foster a love for books, which can lead to a lifelong habit of reading and learning.

Additionally, when children engage in reading improvement activities, it encourages a bonding experience between parents and children, promoting positive interactions and shared stories that build emotional connections. Teachers, when equipped with strategies to support reading improvement, can create inclusive classrooms that cater to diverse learning needs, ensuring all children have the opportunity to thrive.

Ultimately, prioritizing reading improvement for younger children establishes a solid literacy foundation that empowers them academically and socially, driving their curiosity and love for knowledge.
