50 Things to do before you're 5!

This is a project which aims to develop children's language skills.

The checklist includes affordable rich experiences which all promote talk. 

Studies of communication and language approaches in the Early Years “consistently show positive benefits for young children’s learning, including their spoken language skills, their expressive vocabulary and their early reading skills.”

All activities completed can be uploaded to Tapestry as well.

Please do have a look! It sounds fantastic.
