Parents and teachers should care about following instructions and normal reading for ages 6-8 because this period is crucial for a child's cognitive and academic development. During these formative years, children establish foundational skills in literacy that are essential for their future learning.

Properly following instructions lays the groundwork for understanding complex tasks and fosters a child's capability to succeed in an academic environment. It promotes listening skills, attention to detail, and the ability to process and respond to information accurately. These skills are fundamental across all subjects, from reading and math to science and social studies.

Normal reading development is equally important. At ages 6-8, most children transition from learning to read to reading to learn. Fluency in reading not only enhances comprehension but also builds vocabulary, boosts imagination, and improves critical thinking. Reading proficiency is directly linked to overall academic success and fosters a lifelong love for learning.

In summary, by prioritizing the ability to follow instructions and ensuring normal reading progress at these ages, parents and teachers lay a solid foundation for a child's future academic achievements and personal growth. Investing in these skills sets the stage for a confident, capable, and resilient learner.
