For example, a child learning to read looks for context clues in the illustrations to help understand the text. As children gain reading experience, they can spot context clues from key words, tone, or sentence structure. Children can also find visual context clues in TV shows, which will lead them to higher-level thinking as they watch. Focus on personal relevance. A good book hold a child's attention because it is personally meaningful to them.
Children have favorite programs for the same reason.
Perhaps your daughter wants to be an airplane pilot like Amelia Earhart or a scientist like Marie Curie. By simply asking a child why they like a program, or what they liked best about something they just watched, you can help children make a personal connection to programs and develop interests. Lead from your own curiosity. Reading aloud works best for children if you are interested in and excited about the books you are reading. It's easier to spark a child's curiosity when you're fired up, too.
