"Talking and Books" teaches adults how to use language facilitation strategies when looking at picture books with young children. The strategies are easy to learn, and very effective for promoting language development and early literacy.

"Talking and Play" shows teachers and parents how to promote language development when children are engaged in play or day-to-day activities. The program reinforces the strategies taught in "Talking and Books" and helps trainees transfer the strategies to different settings.
