Parents' involvement in a child's writing and reading development is important not only during the preschool period but also during elementary and high school. Some of the helpful home-literacy activities include parents' reading aloud to children, listening to them reading and reading along with them, providing books and emphasizing the value of literacy and the importance of school success. Doing this, children realize the importance of being educated. Talking to children about books they are reading also improves the way they express themselves and enriches their vocabulary.
There are many educational games that can be effective and teach a child how to behave, to develop his creativity and logical thinking, build his language and comprehension skills or learn about the importance of keeping hygiene on a high level.
