Continued development can be encouraged by having the child take turns reading with their brother, allowing them to practice both reading and listening skills. They can also create their own stories and read them aloud to their sibling, fostering creativity and imagination. Additionally, providing a variety of reading materials, such as newspapers, magazines, or online articles, can expose the child to different writing styles and topics, expanding their knowledge and understanding of the English language.
