I don't have to tell you how important early communication skills are.
You know that as someone who spends many quality hours each day with babies and toddlers you are responsible for language development.
But you also know how difficult it can be to find materials that are age appropriate and interesting and engaging for babies and toddlers.
Traditional "Baby's First Books" are more appropriate for five or six year old children. Let's face it, babies and toddlers do not care that "A" is for aardvark. That is why I wrote a set of books that are developmentally appropriate for 6-24 month old children.
Developmentally appropriate for babies aged 6-24 months.
Target:
Board Books for Pre-Verbal and Beginning Verbal Children
If you work with babies or toddlers you might want to learn more about how communication skills develop and more importantly how to best interact with young children so brain connections are made successfully.
This book is designed for anyone spending time with babies and toddlers to ensure each child has the best start in terms of language and literacy. Communication skills; comprehension, speaking, articulating sounds and social skills are developed in the first three years. This book covers the first 18 months of baby's life, giving lots of hands on practical and fun suggestions about how care-givers can give children the foundational skills for later literacy and communication. Topics such as the use of sign language, rhyming, appropriate books, fingerplays, pacifiers, sippy cups, hearing testing, the use of technology and special circumstances are all discussed.
This book is available for purchase in paperback or on Kindle through Amazon in Canada, the US and the UK.
