Practice Guides for Parents

These can be used by parents to provide their infants, toddlers, or preschoolers fun and exciting literacy learning experiences and opportunities. Practitioners working with parents may also use the Practice Guides to promote parents use of literacy learning activities with their children.

Select Practice Guides are available in Spanish. You can also find Practice Guides with Adaptations. These guides make it easier for young children with disabilities to participate in early literacy learning activities. Written for both parents and practitioners, the practice guides describe everyday home, community, and childcare learning opportunities that encourage early literacy learning.
