First words, letters and numbers for babies

These delightfully diverse books for little ones introduce essential first concepts, such as new words, numbers, colours and letters, through the context of simple, engaging stories.

Brilliant for building pre-literacy and pre-number skills, these picture books and board books encourage babies and toddlers to listen to and absorb new language, develop an awareness of letters and sounds, explore colours and patterns in illustrations and point to or count out small groups of familiar objects during shared reading with an adult.

Sharing this lovely inclusive list with young children is a wonderful way to effortlessly nurture their early learning while instilling a love of reading too!
