The experience

Photo albums are a great tool to support language development in younger children. Why not make your own little photo album:

• Glue photos of your child and the important people in their life onto sturdy 4x6 index cards.
• Punch a hole in the upper left corner of each card and tie them together with a short piece of yarn.
• Share the book with your child.

They will love seeing pictures of the people they love and hearing you talk about them.
