Read, Speak, Sing: Your Baby and Early Literacy
From the Canadian Pediatric Society: "Learning to read starts from birth. Whether through books, words, or songs – daily language experiences help form an emotional bond with your baby and are vital to the development of your baby’s early literacy skills."
Words on Wheels believe that reading, speaking, and singing to babies and children promote literacy skills.
