The main purpose of this study is to examine the interaction between educators and children during reading aloud and how the educators recognize this. The study is qualitative and the empirical material was gathered through observation and interview methods. Interviews were done with three teachers, and they were observed on five occasions. The children’s age is 4-5 years. The results show that teachers have a good knowledge of reading alouds importance for young children's language development and reading aloud is seen as an educational activity, but may have different purposes depending on the situation. The result also shows that the teachers clearly recognize children's linguistic stimulation in reading aloud.
