Childrens Audio Books

Childrens Audio Books provide entertainment, but they also help children gain reading readiness skills that help them to be better readers. Did you know that children who know more words, read better?

Here are some of the advantages of audio books for children:

They're Fun!Listening to a story is fun and a lot more like a movie. If you have a reluctant reader, you might try starting with a fun, well-done audio book.

Auditory LearnersAudio books are great for auditory learners. Some children struggle to read because they are very auditory. A children's audio book can help them be successful readers, too.

Struggling ReadersIt can be especially helpful to pair a book with audio if you are trying to help a struggling learner with their reading skills. I've seen children with dyslexia do really well with audio books.

EntertainmentWhile reading with your children is the best option, in reality, sometimes an audio book can fill in for you. After all, it's better than always turning on the TV or a movie when you really need to get some work done!

And, audio books are great in the car, even on short trips and errands. Busy mothers often use them to entertain the kids as they run errands around town.

Build VocabularyListening to books is great for developing comprehension and listening skills. Children can understand more than they can read, so audio books provide them with exposure to richer literature than they might read on their own.

Popular Childrens Audio Books

Here are a few of the more popular audio books for kids. There are, of course, many more. When you are shopping for audio books, keep your child's interests in mind.

Childrens audio books are a great way to supplement childrens books and beginning reading books. Not only do children enjoy (and listen over and over) to these audio books, they learn new words, thus increasing their vocabularies. In turn, as they know more words, they are able to comprehend what they read better!
