Language and Play - Books and Stories

Did you know?

• It is never too early to read or tell your child stories and talk about the story
• Pictures are a very important part of storybooks – even babies will point at pictures

How does this help my child?

• Parents, grandparents, brothers and sisters can support a love of books and stories long before a child starts school.
• The enjoyment of sharing books is very important when learning to read

• Go through the books your child brings home from school and read them to / with all your children

Activities you might like to try at home
