DO talk while you're eating says @pam_akinyi - mealtimes are great for language!! And language is crucial for learning to read - if you missed our @Aston_IHN lecture don't fear it's still here! @ProfFarrow @Meg_Nutrition @MisstahCook @JamesEdPsych
Mealtimes are a ‘safe’ easy place for conversation that builds children’s language skills @LaShaps1 @MisstahCook @Aston_IHN @JamesEdPsych @ProfFarrow @njorogepatryk @maxwell_fundi @mykmumbo

@nathan_ridout @ap_burgess @blue2boot Brilliant- definitely a scientist in the making! Our omission wasn't due to an experiment (we found out when we were awoken at 5am by a very tearful child holding a tooth, who has since become an incurable cynic!)
