Use reading as a special together time with your child and for calming down before bed or as a treat just after they have woken up. Your child will learn to appreciate books, get enjoyment from the stories, and learn speech development while having cuddles with you - and who would mind extra cuddles? It is never too early to read with your child so start as soon as they are able to sit.

Singing, rhyming and moving to music boosts confidence and helps speech development. Talk about what you are doing as you do it to extend your child's vocabulary and join in -- fun and exercise in one!
