I have a daughter and two sons. My daughter took to reading like a fish takes to water. She'll pick up a book or magazine and spend hours enjoying it quietly on her own. My son, five-year-old Arthur, on the other hand, more resembles a fish out of water when it comes to reading. That's not to say it's difficult for him or that's he's bad at reading, he would just rather be doing other things. Throwing any object or swinging any stick comes right to mind without even mentioning video games. Here's listing of little boy reading material that's sure to help. Be sure to get books with lots of pictures. 1. Space - Boys can't resist a good spaceship or alien. Even non-fictional accounts of actual space missions will hold your son's attention.
2. Wild Animals - Lions, Tigers and Elephants are sure to arouse the big-game hunter in every little boy.
3. Snakes - A type of wild animal that needs to be listed separately. Nothing is more fascinating to kids than these vipers and constrictors. Arthur brought his snake book to his very first show-and-tell.
4. The Sea - Pirates, sharks and whales keep little boys coming back for more.
5. Little Boys - This is the best category. Little boys love to hear about kids like themselves. The wild and exotic adventures of little ones lost at sea or caught up in a dream will seed a fertile imagination. Follow these stories up with a good treasure hunt and your son won't even ask about video games. Be sure to check out the many child chairs that are available. Giving a boy a comfy reading spot of his own will go a long way towards developing a bright reading future. |
