Reading is one of the best ways for people of all ages to learn new things and expand their vocabulary. Kids are no exception! If your little one doesn’t seem to be too interested in books, one way to encourage them to read more is to find books about a topic that interests them. With so many books to choose from, and more being published every day, we’re confident you’ll be able to find a handful of new reads to pique your child’s interest.
When it comes to finding books on a particular topic, there’s no need to pick a topic that seems like it would be popular. Even if your child’s interest seems obscure, you’ll likely be surprised to find there are books on it! Here are some topics to inspire you.
- Colors
- A certain color, such as blue
- Animals
- A certain animal, such as elephants
- Flowers
- Trees
- Bugs
- Ladybugs
- Dirt
- Water
- Clouds
- Ice cream
- Dogs
And that’s just the beginning! Once you pick a topic, head to your local library and see what books you can find. Be sure to chat with a librarian, who can help you find books related to your child’s interest.
