Fostering Early Literacy at Home
Tip: Start reading aloud daily, even if your child is too young to respond. Exposure builds language development.
Early literacy skills develop long before formal schooling begins. Simple activities like naming objects, singing rhymes, and pointing out words in storybooks help children build vocabulary and comprehension. Make reading a special bonding time — consistency matters more than duration.
