West Berkshire Every Child a Talker

TALKING TIP OF THE MONTH

Get down to your child's level

To make communication as easy as possible, it is important to get down to your child's level when you are chatting and playing together. This could mean sitting on the floor with your child or sitting on a chair next to them when they are in their highchair.

Your child will be able to see your face if they look at you. You will be able to see what your child is interested in and you can then talk about it.
