1KHO 800: Read to Your Kids As Long As They Will Let You | Meghan Cox Gurdon, The Enchanted Hour
This conversation will make you want to grab a book and call your kids closer. Meghan Cox Gurdon, author of The Enchanted Hour, explains why reading aloud is one of the most powerful things a parent can do, even though it looks so simple on the surface. It builds language, strengthens attention, and creates a kind of connection that is hard to find anywhere else. Ginny Yurich and Meghan talk about the real-life rhythm of it, the end-of-day pile-on-the-couch moments, the science behind what is happening in a child’s brain, and why this matters just as much for teens as it does for little kids. There is no pressure to do it perfectly, just an invitation to start and to keep going.
