Support language at home

It is easy, natural, and a part of daily routines to support language development at home. Establishing a language-rich environment is essential because children learn best via meaningful interactions. Regular conversation with your child throughout everyday tasks, such as dressing, shopping, or mealtimes, aids in vocabulary and comprehension development. To introduce new terms, name items, explain actions, and describe what you're doing. One of the most effective strategies to promote language is to read aloud to each other every day.
