We give books as gifts to our girls every Christmas and birthday, and this year I have also been looking for gifts that further encourage the development of all areas of literacy – reading, writing, speaking and listening. When you go looking there are lots of fun games and resources that engage children with literacy and I hope this list will provide you with inspiration for adding language and literacy to your Christmas gift list!
The ideas below are linked to Amazon product links (affiliate links). These are suggestions only to give you a closer look at an item we love in our home, obviously you can shop for similar items wherever you prefer to shop.
