When parents and children sing together, the child learns to listen; to wait for his or her turn; to imitate gestures, sounds and words; and learns new words and actions.
This booklet, that accompanied a CD-ROM of songs,is part of the "Talk With Me" program, a free early language service for all children aged 0 to 5 years old. This project was realized by Julie Boucher and Michèle O'Connell, Speech-Language Pathologists of the Talk With Me Service in Regional Health Authority 4 in New Brunswick.
