Introducing ‘Communication Skills and Attachment Play: The First Five Years’ by Dr Margot Sunderland | AD

How much quality time do you have with your children? A 2018 study found that half of parents spend less than one hour of quality time per day with their children which isn’t surprising with work, housework and everything else we need to fit into the day.

Ever since the children were tiny we’ve read to them and with them at every opportunity. Now we’re at the point where LP will read whole chapter books by herself and since Little Man started school last year we have tried to inspire him to read by himself too and our latest discovery to aid
