The “5 Rs” include:

Reading together as a family.

Rhyming, playing, talking, singing, and cuddling many times during the day.

Establishing routines for meals, play, and sleep in order to encourage predictability and teach expectations.

Rewarding successes and positive behavior, particularly through lots of praise.

Building nurturing, meaningful relationships, the basis for healthy child development.

Following these “5 Rs” can help to strengthen parent-child bonding, build vocabulary, and promote literacy development in young children.
