Looking for practical parenting tips for your little one? Establishing a daily storytime routine at Lidcombe Childcare or at home can make a big difference in child development. Even just 10–15 minutes a day can help toddlers and preschoolers build essential skills.
- Choose age-appropriate books – Picture books for toddlers, simple storybooks for preschoolers, or story sessions at kindy programs help create a strong reading habit for kids.
- Make it interactive – Ask questions, encourage predictions, or let children describe illustrations. This enhances creativity and cognitive growth.
- Consistency is key – Try a set time each day, whether at Lidcombe Childcare or home, so reading becomes a fun and reliable routine.
- Show enthusiasm – Use different voices and expressions to bring stories to life, making storytime engaging and memorable.
Why it works: Daily storytime improves vocabulary, listening skills, attention span, and empathy—critical for toddlers and preschoolers enrolled in Lidcombe Childcare, kindy, or preschool programs.
✨ Quick Tip: For restless toddlers, break storytime into short 3–5 minute sessions multiple times a day.
