Parent and Child Shared Reading

You can use books to facilitate a child’s ability to learn language. Sharing a book is an ideal time for having a conversation with your child and can help you to facilitate language development because:

• Looking at books develops concentration and attention span
• Parents can use modelling, repeating and imitating to help elicit language
• Repetition is a natural part of reading books
• A favourite, familiar book reinforces already learned language

Here are three ways you can help make reading a language-learning experience for your child!
