Let's talk about babies, speech perception, and babbling.

On this episode of Kindergarten Ready: What Really Matters, we are all about....babies!
This week, we shift the focus age wise, and talk about babies and their amazing speech perception abilities and early babbling. And yes I geek out a little on the science and research, but trust me, this is super cool stuff. Seriously. Seriously cool.

As always, please feel free to reach out with comments, suggestions, and maybe sound clips of your kids even!

Early invented spelling and the developing reading brain
On this episode of Kindergarten Ready: What Really Matters we have our first ever listener requested topic: invented spelling and kid writing! Yay! A topic near and dear to my heart- and brain. We’ll talk about how early kid writing is not only a great gateway to learning to read, it actually directly tells us about the child’s developing brain!
