Research has found that providing children from birth to five with consistent, language-rich experiences – such as talking, reading, and singing – can have important benefits on their brain development and future school success.
The U.S. Departments Education and Health and Human Services, in partnership with Too Small to Fail have created the “Talk, Read, and Sing Together Every Day” tip sheets.
Made specifically for families, caregivers and early educators, these resources can help enrich a child’s early language experiences by providing research-based tips for talking, reading, and singing with young children every day beginning from birth. All tip sheets are available in English and Spanish, and can be downloaded for free on our website.
