'A Little Spark' Igniting the Reading Experience With Music
HOUSTON, October 19, 2021 (Newswire.com) - Technology has changed a lot for us and our kids. Fewer kids are interested in reading books these days, and technology plays a huge part in that. But that issue has a simple solution; make books more entertaining by telling stories in a better way, while also incorporating technology throughout the experience. Chris Parsons' book, A Little Spark, does exactly that by leveraging technology for the better.
It gives kids a multi-sensory experience by involving their visual sense with appealing illustrations and invoking their sense of hearing with upbeat music. Music that energizes them and gets them up and out of their seats. It makes reading more fun than ever before. Adding to the multi-sensory experience is A Little Spark's audiobook. The audiobook provides a delightful performance of each character, which helps younger children when hearing what each individual character sounds like.
Research shows that children socialize, vent emotions and entertain themselves through music. So, by linking reading with lively music, you can spark the love for reading in your kids and develop a lifelong habit of reading.
The storyline of this book is entertaining, informative, and inspiring. The addition of music engages kids in a much broader way and lets them form a deeper connection with the characters.
Filled with valuable lessons, the book teaches kids to be understanding, nonjudgmental, and confident - to always be a spark that lights up the world. Parents and teachers can use it to have important conversations with their kids about being kind, courageous, and compassionate towards others. Each of the lessons or songs in the book is followed by an example in the story that can help your kids understand them better.
And here's the best part - you don't need to visit any external sources to search for the soundtrack or listen to the audio engraved in the chapters. All the content can be found in the book itself. You simply scan the QR code from the pages and enjoy the music.
This book will surely take your reading time with your kids to the next level. Your little ones will enjoy it and they'll be looking forward to reading the book and dancing it out with you to the lively and catchy toons.
