Parents and teachers should prioritize improving reading skills and comprehension for children ages 7-8 because these years are a pivotal period in cognitive development. At this age, children transition from "learning to read" to "reading to learn." Effective reading skills enable them to understand and engage with new information across subjects, fostering a love for lifelong learning.

Good reading comprehension goes beyond just understanding words; it enhances critical thinking, vocabulary development, and overall academic performance. Proficient readers can better grasp complex concepts, follow instructions, and solve problems independently. This early competence sets a foundation that impacts future schooling and career opportunities.

Moreover, reading fosters empathy and emotional intelligence. Through stories and characters, children learn to see different perspectives and understand complex emotions, aiding social development. Active parental and teacher involvement in daily reading promotes a positive attitude towards reading, making it an enjoyable and anticipated activity.

Ignoring the importance of developing reading skills can result in academic struggles, leading to a loss of self-confidence and disengagement from school. Therefore, investing time and resources into improving reading skills and comprehension during these formative years is crucial for overall development and long-term success.
