Already at the age of 7 months picture book reading is associated with later language development …

„Our results extend the findings of Bromley who showed that picture book reading at the age of 10 months was associated with the language skills of children at the age of 34 months. Our data add to this finding that already at the age of 7 months picture book reading is associated with later language development and that the effect still remains even when considering later joint picture book reading as well as other characteristics of the HLE (Anm.: home learning environment) within the same model.“
