Parents and teachers should prioritize reading practice, particularly with non-fiction texts for children aged 5-8, as it establishes essential skills for lifelong learning. At this age, children are naturally curious about the world around them, and non-fiction reading cultivates that curiosity by exposing them to factual content about science, nature, history, and various cultures.

Reading non-fiction texts boosts vocabulary and comprehension skills; children learn new words in context and enhance their ability to extract key information and understand complex ideas. This also fosters critical thinking, as they evaluate the reliability of sources and form educated opinions.

Moreover, non-fiction reading nurtures cognitive development, helping young readers make connections between what they read and their own experiences. This engagement lays the groundwork for academic success, as reading proficiency is linked to future achievement across subjects.

Additionally, exploring diverse topics can spark interests and hobbies, guiding children toward informed decisions about their passions. Overall, encouraging children to read non-fiction not only supports their literacy skills but also promotes intellectual growth, curiosity, and a deeper understanding of the world, which are all vital for holistic development.
