🌱 What difference does it make?
• Children grow their early vocabulary and language skills
• Parents feel confident and empowered in supporting early speech
• Helps identify children who may benefit from additional support

Quote: When parents read to young children their neural patterns begins to align, an experience no screen can match:

“Don’t be surprised if a child wants the same book over and over again. Just find ways of enjoying it. And if they want to read the pages in a different order, or are reading the wrong bit of the page, or want to skip pages, that’s fine too. The important thing is to let them lead.

“And be confident — no matter how good you think you are at reading. Your voice is more important than that of the greatest actor. You just want to build a happy place. And a book is a really cheap, accessible way to do that.”
