Alison David, consumer insight director at Farshore, shares research that highlights the importance of reading with children at home.

While children will learn to read at school, continuing to share books with them at home will help inspire a love of reading and encourage children to read for pleasure.


Alison David shares research that shows how reading to children at home - including once they can read themselves - will help children develop a love of reading that will support their learning journey across all subjects at school.  Alison also gives tips and suggestions to help develop reading at home into a time that parents and children can enjoy.
