Fairy tales for children 2–3 years old Russian folk, winter, short, therapeutic
Fairy tales for children 2–3 years old are not easy entertaining stories, because thanks to them, kids learn about how this world works and learn to distinguish between good and evil. In addition, fairy tales greatly improve a child’s speech development.
How to choose books for children 2-3 years old
At this age, kids still do not know how to read on their own, moreover, they perceive most of the story through pictures. Therefore, for such children, it is advisable to choose books with bright, memorable illustrations.
Do not forget to pay attention to the quality of the drawings themselves. All pictures should be clear and not blurry, moreover, it is necessary that the drawn objects are quickly recognized by the baby.
When choosing a book for a kid, pay attention to its quality. It should be made of natural safe material, because children of this age love to taste things.
Young children cannot focus on storytelling for long. You should not rush things and try to read “Kid and Carlson” or “The Wizard of the Emerald City” to a small child. After all, he is unlikely to remember long stories, and even more so he will not understand what the story is about. Therefore, to begin with, choose the shortest and most capacious stories.
