This Daily Habit Shapes Your Child’s Future (and It’s Not an App)

Is reading to your child really that important?

In a world where kids grow up scrolling before they can crawl, we’re forgetting the most powerful learning tool ever created — a book.

In this episode, I’m breaking down:

✨ Why reading is more essential than ever in a screen-saturated world

✨ How daily storytime literally wires your child’s brain for success

✨ The surprising stats about what happens in your child’s brain when you read

✨ Why “boring” books like Brown Bear, Brown Bear are anything but boring

You’ll learn: How reading builds focus, empathy, imagination, and language skills

The difference between “entertainment” and true cognitive development

Why no app can replace your voice, your lap, and 10 quiet minutes together
