Reading readiness in preschool is foundational for a child’s long-term academic success, and both parents and teachers have crucial roles in fostering this early literacy. When children are ready to read, they possess essential pre-literacy skills—such as understanding the alphabet, phonemic awareness, and vocabulary development—that enable them to decode words, comprehend text, and enjoy a range of stories and informational materials. Addressing reading readiness in preschool can significantly diminish future learning disparities, making school experiences more enjoyable and less frustrating for children.

Parents and teachers who actively engage in fostering reading readiness create an environment rich with print materials, storytelling, and interactive reading sessions, sparking a love for books and learning. This engagement enhances a child’s cognitive development, expands their language skills, and boosts their ability to communicate effectively. Moreover, early exposure to reading not only prepares children to meet and exceed academic standards but also nurtures emotional connections, fostering stronger parent-child or teacher-student bonds. By prioritizing reading readiness, parents and teachers set children on a path toward continuous curiosity, lifelong learning, and overall academic achievement, laying a robust foundation for their future educational and personal growth.
