Encouraging children to become comfortable with words, especially new words, is all about repetition. Explaining a word’s definition is a great start, but using words is what makes them sink in. Every day. Just as a quotidian morning meal is essential to your children’s health and sustained energy, so too is the quotidian use of [...]
