The Early Childhood Development Unit (ECD) of the Childcare and Protection Agency (CPA) is preparing to launch its back-to-basics toddler reading programme.
The toddlers reading programme is aimed at encouraging parents to read books with their preschool children, ECD’s Executive Officer, Lavern Thorne explained.
Thorne told the Department Public Information (DPI) during an interview that the programme was developed after it was recognised that a large number of children cannot read.
