Reading Aloud to Your Children

You can massively improve your children's language ability by reading to them complex and advanced texts. This doesn't have to be all done at once, in long periods of time depending on the age of a child. As you get into challenging texts, the child has a certain attention span. So better to spend five or ten or 15 minutes reading a complex passage and yet have it be a short amount of time than to overburden the child with extensive a reading of complex texts.
