Long before a child learns to read, they learn to love stories. A parent’s voice at bedtime, a grandparent’s tale of the past, or a teacher’s animated reading, all these spark curiosity and imagination.
Storytelling is more than entertainment; it is a child’s first classroom. Through stories, children discover words, emotions, values, and even problem-solving. They begin to understand the rhythm of language and the power of imagination.
When storytelling is introduced early, it creates a natural bridge to books. Children who enjoy stories become eager to read them on their own. Each story told becomes a seed planted, growing into a love for reading, learning, and exploring the world through books.
In every story shared, we are not only teaching language, we are nurturing compassion, creativity, and a lifelong passion for knowledge.
