Merriam-Webster Kids

Introduction Children learn language from their parents and families. Research shows that young children learn words most easily when parents and caregivers use single words and short phrases to narrate and describe what the child and the caregivers are doing throughout the day. Incorporating these short descriptions into the child’s daily routines and play activities is a simple way for parents to encourage language learning. In addition to providing pictures of common items in a child’s life, this book is intended to give models of the kinds of short comments that fit well into a child’s daily routines. Over 150 new words and phrases are included in the text. Once children start to talk, repeating their words and adding a little bit to what they say encourages them to say more. Parents can help with language understanding by asking simple questions about the 90+ photos shown along the page borders, such as “Where’s the duck ” or “Who’s running ” And then encourage the child to point to the appropriate picture. Using simple language with lots of expression while communicating with your child creates a lifelong bond. Claire Laties Davis MS, CCC-SLP

Merriam-Webster's 150 First Words By Claire Laties Davis MS, CCC-SLP

Move over, “generic” 100 first word books! Merriam-Webster is storming the category with a 150 first word board book experience grounded in the principles of child development. The interactive experience encourages toddlers’ language learning through the repetition of simple words and phrases, using tried-and-true authoritative language techniques, written by a speechlanguage pathologist. While most first words books list nouns, our book naturally weaves 150 single words and short phrases around everyday illustrations that children will recognize from their own daily routines. Along the border of each spread, we’ve included photographs of every illustrated item to encourage an additional search-and-find opportunity for parents and their babies. Hosted by nine ethnically diverse babies, it’s a search-and-find experience that will delight parents and caregivers. ■ Each spread includes photographs of babies and everyday objects alongside illustrated scenes showing them in action—creating a search-and-find on every page to allow more time for parents and babies to connect. ■ Author Claire Laties Davis includes an introductory note that coaches parents and caregivers in her proven methods for getting babies talking. ■ Features nine babies of different ethnic backgrounds and settings from around the world. ■ Each spread features routines familiar to babies and their caregivers from morning to night, including waking up, getting dressed, playtime, bath time, and dinner time.

Inspired by Merriam-Webster’s popular Word of the Day digital feature, this book builds knowledge one day at a time with 366 masterful words (includes one for leap year!). Offering charming illustrations, all of them featuring animals, the masterminds at MerriamWebster have selected challenging, surprising, and fun-to-pronounce words and paired them with fascinating facts and trivia. Each entry contains the date, word, pronunciation, definition, and trivia. Each month ends with a Story of the Month that includes all of the words plus a free audio download accessed through a QR code. This is a great gift book—how can grownup Word of the Day fans resist?—for every 8+ year-old on your list. ■ The book can be purchased any time of the year; it’s not “dated” by year.
