In Preschool and Early Childhood Settings

Why Focus on Play and Daily Routines?
Young children have many opportunities to develop communication skills through everyday interactions.
Playing with familiar toys, sharing books, singing songs and participating in daily routines provide meaningful contexts for adults to model language and respond to children’s communication attempts.
These handouts encourage caregivers to make the most of activities they already do, rather than introducing complicated or expensive tasks.
The aim is to help families recognise that everyday interactions can become valuable opportunities for early language learning.
