Year of Communication - Better communication begins at your child’s level. Learn how to make it part of everyday play.
Book of the Month: Zeki Goes to the Park
Join Zeki for a joyful summertime visit to the park, full of everyday play and adventure. From riding on rockers and shovelling in the sandpit to stomping in the splash pad with playdate Yu, this delightful and inclusive picture book celebrates the fun of early childhood play.
With expressive, rhythmic text and vibrant illustrations, it reflects a warm, modern setting that many children will recognise.
Zeki Goes to the Park was shortlisted for the Inclusive Books for Children Awards 2024, highlighting its positive and inclusive representation.

Activity: Muddy Footprints
Have fun making muddy footprints or marks together, either outdoors or indoors using messy play materials.
This activity is great for:
- Talking about actions such as stamping, walking and jumping
- Building descriptive language
- Encouraging shared attention and turn‑taking
A lovely way to explore language together through play.
