Dorothy And Theodore Promote Reading With Children To Help Them Develop

Online, February 1, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Reading to children is something all parents do. Reading is a way of soothing a child, and often when parents want to prepare their children for going to bed, they will sit them on their knees, and read them a long story to help them relax. Overtired children benefit from reading a book with parents as they can really relax and feel just how tired they are after a story, or even during.

Research has shown that reading with children helps them to develop much faster, by improving their memory skills through reading the same story over and over again. Parents can also interact with their children through the story, asking them questions about things in the book such as how many characters there are on a page. These questions help develop children in other ways, and will be evident when they begin to count faster and to higher numbers than before.

Dorothy and Theodore is encouraging parents to read more to children, as research shows it is crucial to help speed up their development. A Customer Service Representative for the company commented, "We offer all kinds of goods from our website to customers, but we can't offer the kind of benefits that reading to a child gives. When parents actively engage with stories with their children they are spending time to help them grow, which is all that any parent wants for their child."

The research which found out how beneficial books are to children also found that once a child knows a story well enough to tell it with the book out as a reference, they can develop even more. Putting on voices to tell the story and creating actions give children more to do than simply sit and be talked to in a range of voices.

Dorothy and Theodore is a baby boutique online. They offer a wide range of goods from various sellers through their website, giving parents a place online to purchase everything they need for their children, themselves and even their home.
