Helping Children Fall In Love With Reading
What is It's Reading Time?
It’s Reading Time is an online reading resource for kids ages 0-8. Our mission is to instill the love of reading in children at a young age.
Reading from a young age is beneficial for several reasons. It helps with the growth of language and communication skills, increases vocabulary and comprehension, and can cultivate a love of learning. Reading to children from an early age can also benefit their cognitive development, including memory and problem-solving abilities. It can also introduce children to a wide range of experiences and opinions, assisting them in being more sensitive and understanding of others. Overall, reading is an important foundation for a child’s education and future success.

YouTube Channel For Kids
Do you need access to great books? Our YouTube channel has hundreds of books your child can read along with, free. We have books about counting, ABC’s, months of the year, and more!
Start your child’s reading journey with a book log. Book logging encourages children to reflect on what they have read. By writing about the book, children are forced to think about their own thoughts and opinions on the book, which can help them to develop their own voice and perspective and retain the information they’ve read. We’ve created a reading log specifically for our channel. You can check out our reading log by clicking HERE.
What Makes It's Reading Time Unique?
What makes It’s Reading Time unique is that we add music and sound effects to each book to keep children engaged and have fun as they read along. Each book on our channel is safe for your child’s eyes and ears. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about your child listening or watching anything that’s inappropriate.
