Reading practice in the early years is crucial for children's cognitive and emotional development, and reading non-fiction can be particularly beneficial for ages 6-8. This developmental window is a time when children are naturally curious about the world around them. Non-fiction books provide a wealth of information that can help satisfy their inquisitiveness while imparting essential knowledge about various topics. By introducing children to factual texts, parents and teachers can foster a love for learning and open doors to subjects like science, history, and geography.

Additionally, reading non-fiction helps develop critical thinking skills. It teaches children to differentiate between facts and opinions and encourages them to make sense of real-world information. This kind of reading also builds vocabulary and comprehension skills, essential tools for overall academic success.

Furthermore, non-fiction can conect to children's interests more directly. For example, a child fascinated by dinosaurs or space will find non-fiction books on these subjects engaging parts of the text-intensive STEM challenges.

Regular reading practice, through a mix of fiction and non-fiction, also establishes a routine that can enhance focus and attention span. For these reasons, integrating non-fiction reading into daily activities at home and school is pivotal. Parents and teachers should encourage this practice to nurture well-rounded, knowledgeable, and critically-minded individuals.
