Above all, spending time reading to and with your child and gamifying math as often as possible is a great way to assist in beginning their journey as lifelong learners!

Early and Emergent Storybook Reading Strategies
Early and Emergent Storybook Reading Strategies
Read Together Often: Read and re-read familiar stories cover to cover using expressive voices and natural gestures.
Pick the Right Books: Choose stories with a clear beginning, middle, and end, where the pictures closely match the words.
Encourage Retelling: Invite your child to "read" or retell their favorite stories to you in their own words.
Practice Book Basics: Help your child locate the front and back of the book, differentiate the text from the pictures, and track words with your finger from left to right.
Find Words Everywhere: Point out letters and words in everyday life, such as on street signs, store windows, or while driving in the car.
