 #Read to your baby!
Reading is one of the best ways to help your baby to learn about communication, and at this age it's not all about reading the words ' it's more about enjoying the interaction with you, as she loves the sound of your voice and your undivided attention. Your baby will enjoy looking at the pictures and listening to the rhythm of your voice long before she can understand the words.

# Continue your toddler's love of books!
 Books open up amazing new worlds and experiences for your toddler, and stories help him develop speech, imagination and even counting skills. Reading books together has probably become a much loved ritual from when he was a baby, so continue your toddler's love of books and reading.

#Encourage your preschooler's imagination
 Preschoolers have very active imaginations, where their world is full of magic, witc hes and superheroes ' and stories and cartoons seem very real. Your child's imagination and creativity are blossoming at this age, and there are many ideas to enhance this through play and music.You may have noticed your preschooler has become fascinated with books. This symbolic stage of learning enables your child to display this understanding through art, drawing, print, and storytelling.

 #Your big kid's developing social skills
Your big kid is off to school, and entering the wider social world of learning and making friends. For the first time they have to think about finding their own place in the world and feeling part of a social group, as well as trying to understand the rules of life, morals, manners and family values. Even though you're not with your child at school, there's still a lot you can do to help develop his social skills.
Developmentally your big kid is moving toward the same abstract thinking process to improvise and revise as a professional symphony composer. This higher level of thinking comes with the ability to recognise and remember even more patterns - gaining a basic understanding of science, algebra and geometry, and skills in logic and reasoning.
