The more people who read with a child, the better.
But in our research, 33% of dads told us they do not regularly read with their child, with many saying they want to but lack confidence.
Let's support all dads to get reading on #FathersDay and beyond!

We love libraries!
They welcome children from the very earliest months of life, helping parents & carers to support their child as they grow & learn, as well as connecting communities.
Embed library visits into your weekly routine & set time aside for reading.

As well as numbers, maths ideas such as space, shapes and patterns, sorting and matching, measuring size, length, weight, volume and capacity are all about maths too!

💥Maths is so much more than numbers!
Maths is a part of everyday life – it’s just a matter of recognising it! Babies and young children learn about numbers and other mathematical concepts through experiencing them as part of everyday activities and routines.
