HOW WILL THIS HELP MY CHILD?
There is emerging evidence showing that children who read aloud to animals experience a significant improvement in their literacy skills, confidence, and motivation to engage with literacy tasks.
The calming presence of animals has been shown to assist children with ADHD in maintaining better focus during learning activities.
The non-threatening presence of an animal can be particularly helpful to children who experience anxiety.
