Book Reading Tips for Language Growth

Reading isn't just about the story-it's about connection and conversation!

1. Let Them Turn the Pages - Builds interest and involvement

2. Point to Pictures - Label objects: "Dog! Woof woof!"

3. Ask Simple Questions - "Where's the cat?" "What's that?"

4. Pause Often - Give them time to comment or respond

5. Read the Same Book Often - Familiar books help with memory and confidence

6. Choose books with simple pictures, repetitive language, and big text.
