Simple creative activities are some of the most important building blocks in child development. Studies show that learning art correlates strongly with higher achievement in math and science.

And as we all know, reading out loud to your child is widely recognized as the single most important activity leading to language development. Children develop literacy skills and an awareness of language long before they are able to read. By simply reading to your children, you are helping them acquire the skills they need to be ready for school.

So bust out the crayons and read with your child - you won't regret a second of it!
