Brain Building Tips
We're surrounded by words that are ready for reading. Try reading signs aloud to your child and talk to them about what they mean. It doesn't matter if it's a book, magazine, or billboard - it all counts! Reading to your child, anywhere and everywhere, helps them develop a rich, diverse vocabulary. Find more tips at vroom.org
