3 Bookbug Information Bookbug sessions are delivered locally across Argyll & Bute. Usually held in libraries or community centres, they are free and open to all parents/ carers and their babies. Each session lasts for approximately 40 minutes and comprises a number of songs and rhymes both new and familiar. Bookbug sessions help develop vocabulary and understanding, listening and responding skills and, through rhymes, develop articulation and pronunciation. Songs will be chosen within the correct range for singing with children with actions to assist language development and there will always be a story to share. The aim of the sessions is to install music and books at the heart of the parent and child relationship at home while raising awareness of the links between singing and rhyming with babies and literacy development. New research from the University of Cambridge has discovered that the ability to hear beats in music is an extremely strong predictor of reading ability. A child who is able to keep a steady beat will naturally be a better reader. It could also be a key to overcoming dyslexia. Reading is all about breaking down letters, sounds and syllables. Keeping a beat does the same - it teaches us to segment, break down sounds and listen carefully. Music teaches our ears to hear and our minds to pattern. Beat and music, which go hand in hand, help young children to become better readers.
