Early intervention, before a child starts school, goes a long way to support social and emotional wellbeing, as well as cognitive and language skills. That’s why we’re making big investments in the early years - including more than $4m to improve literacy and development. The Words Grow Minds campaign goes to the heart of how families can help babies and young children develop through simple interactions that benefit the whole community. Getting the early years right can make the biggest difference to a child’s life.
