Research has shown that for many young children there is a ‘language gap’. In this learning opportunity families will discover the importance of talking to their children. This is particularly important for children birth through age eight. Developing your child’s vocabulary has shown to be beneficial in brain development, and basic literacy skills which are critical components of school readiness.

This learning opportunity will provide strategies for families to use with their child. Each family will receive Free Materials to help them implement oral language and talking strategies at home.
