“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” – Dr. Seuss

Have you ever read a book so fascinating that you cannot seem to set it aside after picking it up? What a magical experience it is to be whisked away into another world just from reading!

Welcome to the Science of Reading Blog, where we share positive reading tips with you and your budding readers to explore the joys of reading, so that your little ones can embark on their own adventures the way you did! 😉 We also explore:

• how to enable children to grow into independent and engaged readers
• how children can develop better reading skills and habits
• common challenges in reading (for example dyslexia) which are equally important to understand

Equipped with our reading glasses 😎 , our team of researchers set out to read and unpack the nitty-gritty details from scientific articles – sharing them here as bite-sized tips and informative posts to bring you the latest research findings fresh from the press!
