According to psychologists, joint reading - an irreplaceable element of education of children. By means of this quite simple and pleasant occupation it is possible not only to impart to the child love for books, but also to teach him to many other useful and important skills.
There is an opinion that the most convincing is own example when instead of tiresome notations and censures the parents show both the correct behavior model, and many useful habits, including to reading. If mother or the father do not refuse to themselves pleasure from time to time to read, independently, from whether new it is the novel, or the glossy magazine, sooner or later the child will show interest in the printed word. And then parents will need only to direct the kid, supporting and helping him with development of this necessary and useful skill.
Psychologists warn: it is impossible to go into extremes, offering girls only books about princesses and fairies. The child has to be free in the choice and have an opportunity to see and compare various fairy tales and stories.
Reading for the smallest
When the child only begins to be interested in books, there are no special differences between literature which suits girls or boys. The main thing at this stage is to support and develop the interest of the child in reading. It is good if in the book there are many illustrations, studying which together with adults children will have a fine opportunity to increase both an active, and passive vocabulary.
Not all young women stop the choice on such classical fairy tales for girls as, for example, "Cinderella" or "Sleeping Beauty". Happens and so that the girl are much more interesting to a story about animal or some fictional characters. After a while the child can already have favourite books, and it will be simpler to parents to choose for him the interesting book.
Younger preschool children
When the child already reached age and the level of development which allows to discuss read, it is important to combine reading with the analysis. Practically from each fairy tale it is possible to take out a useful lesson - for example, "Turnip" teaches that collective efforts are much more effective, and above-mentioned "Cinderella" - an example of how can be rewarded work, diligence and kindness. Irrespective of a sex of the child, during this period it is worth selecting books which can give a positive example. Important not only to read, but also to check unostentatiously whether correctly the kid understood the meaning of any given fairy tale or history. At the age of 3-4 years when children already have the first idea of distinction of floors, the corresponding characters - the Snow White, the Sleeping Beauty, Marya mistress, etc. more are suitable for girls.
Some children, especially girls, from the earliest age can show character and persistence, choosing any given book.
Reading for the senior preschool children
Girls who already were 5-7 years old quite often already are capable not only to select the book to themselves according to taste, but also to read it. In this case from parents it is required also to help the child to retain interest in the printed word, but also to find time not only for discussion, but also joint reading. According to psychologists, similar pastime, especially if it is long term habit, is capable to improve significantly relationship in family. In particular, children to whom read books quite often are in trusting relationship with the parents. Parents of girls during this period can recommend books which characters and heroes have the skills necessary for the child. For example, fairy tales in which the diligence and friendship is encouraged and rage and laziness - are blamed.
Books for schoolgirls
Besides the school program, to girls of this age biographies of the famous people of similar age can be useful to a story about peers and also. Especially useful can be books in which children and teenagers relationship with the friends - both in a class, and in life learns to build correctly. And here various glossy editions which extend more and more and have strong impact on weak minds, it is worth limiting, or at least to watch that studying various editions devoted to fashion and beauty was counterbalanced with reading useful books and fiction.
