Abstract | Early childhood educators know that home is a child's first learning environment. From birth, children are comforted by hearing and listening to their caregivers' voices. The language used by families supports young children's development of oral language skills. Exposure to print materials in the home also supports literacy development. Literacy opportunities that arise naturally--in the home and early childhood settings--not only develop listening, oral language, and reading and writing skills but also foster social-emotional growth. As children experience more sophisticated forms of language and literacy, such as using longer sentences and a larger and diverse vocabulary, they build increasingly complex communication skills and use them to express needs, feelings, and ideas and to interact with others. By suggesting meaningful, fun, and engaging activities, early educators can play a critical role in supporting families as they support their children's social-emotional development. In this article, the authors describe specific and effective literacy-based strategies and activities that early childhood educators can use in the classroom and suggest to families so they can support their young children's social-emotional skills at home.
