Maricopa Library Promotes Early Childhood Reading
Maricopa County, Arizona – A recent report from the Maricopa County Library District presents key information on early childhood development. According to the report, a child's brain is 80% developed during the first 1,000 days of life. The report encourages parents to read one book a day with their child from ages 0 to 3, suggesting that this practice can help build strong reading and language skills and foster a bond between parent and child.
The Maricopa County Library District is promoting early reading by inviting families to get started by signing up for a free library card, which can be obtained at MCLDAZ.org. The library district also celebrates the milestone achievement of reading 1,000 books before kindergarten.
