Normal punctuation is crucial for children aged 3-6 as it lays the foundation for effective communication and literacy skills. At this early stage, children begin to understand the structure of language, and proper punctuation plays a vital role in this process. Familiarizing toddlers and preschoolers with elements such as periods, question marks, and exclamation points enriches their comprehension and critical thinking.

When parents and teachers model and emphasize punctuation, children learn to discern the tone, intent, and emotion behind written words. For example, the difference between a simple statement and an excited exclamation can alter the child's interpretation of a sentence. This distinction helps develop their reading skills, enabling them to engage with texts more effectively and enjoyably.

Moreover, incorporating basic punctuation in shared reading experiences fosters a love of books and storytelling. It enhances vocabulary and encourages expressive reading, vital components in building confident readers and writers.

Ultimately, focusing on normal punctuation during these formative years equips children with essential skills that support their academic journey, leading to better communication skills and a deeper understanding of written language as they progress through their education. Teachers and parents have a significant role in nurturing these foundational abilities.
