Improve literacy and impact your child’s future with Vooks, a library of animated read aloud storybooks that are kid-safe and ad-free.

Did you know that being read to aloud can have a remarkable impact on a child’s development and literacy. Recent studies have demonstrated that animation combined with reading can enhance retention even further.

Vook incorporates important characteristics of an effective reading aloud story time by providing a model of fluent, expressive narration, with purposeful pacing helping to maintain attention in a positive way that promotes a love of reading and a lifelong impact.

Story time is a great way to connect with you child, to share exciting stories and pictures and to increase you child’s understanding of the world. There is no substitute for quality parent-child conversation. Talk to your child about the books you are reading on Vooks, commenting on interesting words and ideas, and sharing your love of literacy with your child.

If you haven't already checked out great reading lesson units for you to do with your child at school on the VOOKS website it is definitely something you will want to do this week. We recommend picking one book for the week, reading it each day and then completing one part of the lesson daily. You can do more than one section a day depending on your child's stamina and interest. Remember we want this to be a fun and positive experience for both you and your child.
