Health24.com | Why it’s important to boost baby’s vocabulary now
We know that early learning can set up a child for success.
A study done by researchers at Penn State University found out just how early that learning should start – by age two.
For this study, parents filled out surveys about how many words their 2-year-olds knew, and then the researchers checked in with them three years later when their children were in kindergarten.
The toddlers with a large vocabulary were more likely to start kindergarten ready to read and learn maths.
Reading to babies
It turned out that they also paid more attention in class and were better behaved. This may also be why some kids do better than others in school.
Building that vocabulary stems from very early and frequent interactions with mom and dad. It takes only simple things to engage baby, such as talking and reading. In fact, it’s hard to over-stress the importance of reading to babies.
A separate study done at the University of Iowa found that babies respond more to reading than to even toy- or puppet-play and, in turn, learn more from it.
A love for books
A very young baby may only babble in response to hearing your voice as you read, but when you respond back by repeating or expanding on his or her sound or offering a word with that sound, this back-and-forth interaction helps with language development.
Another important difference maker for a child’s early development is to read books with bright pictures and simple sentences rather than single words.
Be engaged as you to read so that baby will develop not only a great vocabulary, but also a love for books that will serve him or her well throughout life.

News24.com | UPDATE: Relief as rain helps to douse Western Cape fires
Heavy rain has fallen in the Western Cape’s Overstrand area where strong winds have affected firefighting efforts against three separate fires in Franskraal, Betty’s Bay and Karwyderskraal.
Chief fire officer in the Overstrand municipality Lester Smith told the SABC on Friday evening that the blaze was out of control.

“The operation is very difficult due to strong winds making it very difficult to fight the fire,” Smith explained.
Netwerk24 reported that the wind was gusting up to close to 100km/h.
The Overstrand Herald reported that three houses had burned down in Betty’s Bay.
The flames had jumped the R44 earlier, Netwerk24 reported.

“There are still two houses on fire,” Willem Law told News24 while watching the blaze from a main road on the eastern side of the small holiday town of Betty’s Bay.
The fire moved down the mountain towards the road as it was fanned by strong winds.
Law said: “Most of the fire has been put out and the rain has also subsided.”
He added that emergency personnel were on the scene.
“Several structures have been damaged. We hope to have more details available soon,” the Overstrand municipality said earlier.
“We lost some power lines in this fire and as a result some areas are without electricity. We will continue with firefighting throughout the night and get more resources, all local authorities and stakeholders are on site.”

By Friday evening firefighters had evacuated parts of all three areas, and members of the public were urged to avoid those areas for the duration of the firefighting efforts.
“We are aware that certain areas are experiencing power outages. This [is] being attended to,” the Overstrand municipality assured residents through its Facebook page.
While some residents have been evacuated, the residents of Hemel en Aarde Estate have been asked to remain on standby until further notice.
Earlier on Friday, Franskraal residents were ordered to evacuate.
The municipality, which is approximately 90km away from the Betty’s Bay area, issued an emergency warning around lunchtime, warning residents that the fire was out of control and spreading fast.
“Overstrand municipality has designated the Gansbaai tourism office hall as your emergency evacuation centre. The evacuation centre is located at: Great White Junction (SPAR Centre), Main Road, Gansbaai,” read a message from the municipality.
Residents were ordered to gather family members loved ones, pets and only essential items. They were also asked to bring along essential medication, turn off all appliances and lights and lock their doors.
The following halls are available for use by those who have been evacuated: Grobbelaar Hall, Moffat Hall in Mount Pleasant, Gansbaai tourism hall, Sandbaai Hall and Crassula Hall.
