Developing language for life

Illustration of Dad and toddler reading togetherShare books and talk together

This guide has been produced as a tool for practitioners to encourage communication between parents/carers and young children through book sharing. Books are a good tool for getting parents and carers talking to young children, and regular talking is one of the best ways to help develop speaking and listening skills from a young age. Share books and talk together has been produced by Talk To Your Baby and Bookstart to support the Family Reading Campaign, which is working through a wide range of organisations to promote the importance of families reading together.
