Children between 3 and 6 years old have autonomy, which allows them to choose the books and the subjects they like. The favorite books of children from 3 to 6 years old can be very varied. Your initiative and your preferences must always be respected. Of course, parents have to accompany their choices and guide them, if necessary, with the help of professionals: their teachers, library professionals and booksellers.

Books for children: what should be fixed?

At these ages, what seniors like, that is, their brothers, cousins ​​or neighbors, has a lot of prestige. But it will be necessary to evaluate if that 'best-selling' book that fascinates 9-year-old children is appropriate for the child's age. Or, rather, if the 6-year-old child has the necessary maturity to enjoy that magnificent story.

Fortunately, most collections of children's literature have a recommended age range that is very indicative for parents when it comes to choosing. A quick glance at the back cover of the book, the back that summarizes the story, is also decisive. Parents know the personality and character of their child and can calculate what they like best.

When looking for the most appropriate reading for children from 3 to 6 years old, it is worth taking into account different aspects: El 1. The level of the texts

, since they can not be very difficult to understand because they would kill the interest of the reader or listener .2. The fonts.

We must also pay attention to the types of letters that appear because there are very nice letters, but very complicated and do not invite the child to take interest in deciphering the texts. 3. The style of the illustrations.

It is another aspect to keep in mind as it must always be in accordance with the child's tastes and with their age: there are illustrations that are works of art, but they are very complicated, abstract, dismal ... the child does not have easy to read of images and that is a very important aspect that must be taken care of. 4. The themes.

A book may have an interesting plot, but a complicated plot or an unattractive subject. In this aspect the magazines have a lot to say: they offer different sections not very long, with photos and different styles of illustration and with different themes (also with games) so that the child can choose what he most desires at every moment according to your mood and your level of fatigue. Sometimes, a story seems very long, but a comic offers the ideal balance between text and image and it is very easy to follow from beginning to end. Many parents, when thinking about reading for children, think about books: I advise you not to forget the magazines. They have a lot to contribute in the education of a reading child and in their love of reading.
