This video shows you some of the great information and ideas available on BBC’S Tiny Happy People.
Tiny Happy People is now part of Cbeebies parenting which is a one-stop-shop offering support, advice and resources to parents and carers at all stages of your parenting journey – from parent-to-be, all the way up to when your child starts primary school.
The website has lots of information about how you can support your child with their communication and language development, as well as lots of ideas about other places you can look.
Talking and listening to your baby helps build their communication skills from the very start! The Little Moments Together Cards are filled with tips and ideas to help you chat with your baby/child throughout the day.

Cards for babies aged 0-9 months
Cards for babies aged 10 -24 months
These cards are also available in lots of other languages, you can find them by visiting National Literacy Trust - Little Moments Together Cards (scroll down to the "Translated versions" section).
Singing songs with your baby helps to build their language and communication skills from the very start!
When they are little, this special time together allows them to recognise familiar sounds and rhythms, which are the first building blocks for language. This works, even when English is not your first language.
