Because picture books are children's books tailored for children, they can meet the growth needs of children aged 0- 15, and are internationally recognized as the most suitable books for children to read. At present, picture books are very common in families in western countries.
Of course, reading parent-child picture books can not only strengthen parent-child relationship, but also make children more dependent on their parents and feel the happiness of parent-child companionship. More importantly, picture book reading has many benefits for children.

Is it normal that my children don't like reading?
To answer this question, we adults should put ourselves in their shoes first. Why don't we like reading ourselves?
Because there are many interesting and beautiful things in our life, I don't want to take the time to see them. The most important thing is that I bought a bunch of books and didn't find any books that I was particularly interested in.
Similarly, children think so. Nowadays, there are many electronic products and cartoons, and toys and playgrounds are fun. It is normal for children not to like reading.
How to read picture books to children and let them develop good reading habits?
To establish a reading atmosphere, first set up a book corner at home, which can be very warm, such as a small sofa or cushion, carpet. When reading, parents need to set rules for their children and tell them not to make any noise when they see others reading. According to the survey, in families with reading habits, children have a 90% probability of falling in love with reading, while in families without reading habits, the probability of falling in love with reading is less than 50%, so parents' habits have an impact on children.
Parent-child classes, children's self-control ability is very weak. Without the guidance of parents, few children will read a book completely, so reading in class is a crucial first step. Before going to bed every day (at a fixed time), choose a picture book that children are interested in and start a parent-child class. When children are in high spirits, parents should limit it a little, such as limiting reading time and times, so as to keep their appetite. In the long run,
Reading guidance, increasing interest,
Parents who are familiar with picture books may know that picture books are picture books with pictures and texts. If parents simply read the text, it will greatly reduce their children's interest in picture books. When they are in class, they should master the following skills:
Say the main content of a single page first (let the children see the whole); Focus on a single element (let children see the details); Ask questions (for example, why is this rabbit afraid? ); Transfer (for example, what would you do if you were tutu? Encourage (when the child answers, encourage in time) deduction (when the class is over, parents should let go of themselves and perform actions and expressions with their children);
Constantly integrating the stories and elements of picture books into life can deepen children's impression of picture books, and also let children know that all stories are not illusory and can be combined with their own lives, so that children can absorb the good habits and good morality in picture books into their own characteristics.
In fact, it's not that children don't like to do it, but that they lack guidance and love support. When a child feels his mother's attention and love when he is in class, he will resist the temptation of mobile phones and games and concentrate on parent-child reading.
A good habit of reading is that you can accompany your child for a lifetime and benefit him for a lifetime. I hope that with the company of every parent, children can develop the good habit of reading and let the light of reading light up his life.
