CREATING FUN AROUND READING

"There is no substitute for books in the life of a child" - May Ellen Chase

The world is fast evolving and various technological devices are being released daily. The impact of this changing world is that many aren't reading anymore. Sir Richard Steele once said and I quote "Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body". If many aren't reading, then we have less critical thinkers and more lazy minds in our society. 

Reading has myriad of benefits apart from keeping the mind sharp and agile. It also has the power to keep one relaxed, widen horizon, change perception, encourage positive thinking, improve  knowledge base, enhance writing and speaking skills and many more. I can keep going on about the benefits of reading.

It will be an injustice to deny children the love of reading. Parents have a key role to play in making their children lovers or haters of books. Emilie Buchwald emphasizes parental involvement in building the love for reading in her quote "Children are made readers on the laps of their parents".

This Summer holiday, every Nigerian parent has the opportunity to bond with their children and boost the love for reading and books through the Magical Books Summer Reading Challenge. 

The Magical Books Summer Reading Challenge is just one of the ways through which parents can inspire their children to read and have fun whilst doing it. It is a program that is also packaged to boost writing, vocabulary and comprehension skills.

This edition is for the Nigerian audience. It is not bound by time or space. Children will be reading in the confines of their homes with or without supervision from their parents during the stipulated time frame. Children also have the opportunity to choose books they love and want to read.

For more details on how to get your children involved, kindly send an email to us at magicalbooks4all@gmail.com. 

Thank you.
