So what’s the best-keptsecret for kindergarten readiness? It’s only one word. Not only is it aword you know, it’s a word many people don’t talk about anymore. LIBRARY! A place wheresomeone else will occupy and entertain your child at no cost by reading thema story or two and even doing some crafts. A place where you cansit on a rainy day and enjoy time with your child while exploringevery type of book known to man (without costing you a penny!). Routinely taking your children to the librarywhen they’re young will better prepare them for kindergarten—and forlife. They will learn responsibility and consideration for others,and they’ll expand their imaginations, engage in a productive andmeaningful activity, and best of all . . . spend quality time withyou.(新闻链接：http://blog.kidzcentralstation.com/parenting-tips/kindergarten-readiness/）
什么是幼儿园入学准备不为人知的秘密呢？其实只是一个词，但却不仅仅是一个你所了解的词，是很多人早已不再提及的词。图书馆！一个人们免费前往又可以让孩子开心的地方，可以给孩子讲故事或做手工艺。在这里你可以雨天避雨、可以与孩子共享快乐时光同时又能畅享各类书籍的场所（不花一分钱）。在孩子幼时定期带孩子去图书馆能够更好的帮助孩子做好入学幼儿园前的准备以及进入人生的准备。他们能够肚饿笑责任和关心他人，还能够拓展想像力、参与硕果累累和意义深刻的活动，而其中最大的益处莫过于与孩子度过珍贵的时光。
