Five simple things you can do to promote literacy at any age:
Engage in meaningful conversation everyday (in the car, at the dinnertable, during bedtime, and more).
Keep your langauge elevated. Refrain from "dumbing down" vocabulary. If your child doesn't understand a word, define it and give it additional context.
Work as a team when running errands. If you're at the grocery store, work on mental calculations, read the labels together, talk out your decision making.
Is it movie night? Turn on the captions! At first, it may feel annoying, but viewers quickly get used to them and learn new words a long the way.
Establish a family reading routine. Build stamina by starting with short periods of time to read together or indepedently. To be most effective, electronics should be out of reach at this time!
You are your child's first and most important teacher!
