Start for Life ‘Little Moments Together’ website
The NHS Start for Life site has produced a new ‘Little Moments Together’ campaign, providing free resources and advice to help parents make the most of everyday moments to further their child’s development.
The website aims to educate parents and carers about the importance of
brain development in the first five years of a child’s life, and the crucial role they play in making the most of day-to-day activities with their child.
The campaign focuses on behaviours that can easily be integrated into parents’ daily routines, such as making eye contact, chatting and engaging with children’s interests. These behaviours will have a positive impact on children’s learning and development.
A suite of digital resources are available for partners to download and support their work, as well as tips and advice on the Start for Life website. A new film to support the campaign has also been made available.
