Look Who's Listening to You!

Here are some things you can do to help your child listen:

Be sure you have your child’s attention.
Make eye-contact down on his/her level.
Look out for ear infections and treat them promptly.
Pronounce words the way adults do so your child will know what is correct.
Speak a little slower.
Use funny voices when reading a story to interest your child.
Ask your child to make a prediction about a story.
Be a good listener to model for your child.
