Books and Language

In the Under 2 community, a variety of books is made available for the infants to explore.

This includes nursery rhymes, song books, books with repetitive patterns, colours, shapes, numbers, and textures.

Books open a window into new experiences and information about the world around us. Books encourage language development and are a great way to extend concentration. As the season changes into Fall, we are beginning to explore books about the changing season, upcoming holidays, celebrations, and special days in our community.
