Aloha ‘Ohana,
Did you know that reading aloud to babies is key to brain development needed for math, reading, and even emotional control?
Reading before naps and bedtime. Read with enthusiasm while keiki snuggles on your lap. Vary the tone of your voice. Ask questions. What's going to happen next? Is the kitty happy or sad? At KHC we believe reading is so vital for wellness, we have Reach Out and Read.
We reward every keiki well visit from 6 months to 6 years old with a new book to add to their personal library. Speaking of libraries, if you don't have a public library card, go get one! Picking out books with your child will build a lifetime of love for reading.
Keiki and adults alike need to stay on schedule for regular wellness visits. Call us at 293-9231 for an appointment. KHC is always accepting new patients regardless of insurance or ability to pay.
