Making TV Useful
Some carefully chosen children’s programmes have been designed to encourage your child’s daily learning. However, studies have shown that your child learns far quicker by being taught face-to-face. Have TV times but not all the time and make sure you choose your child’s programmes carefully.

DID YOU KNOW?
One in ten children in the U.K (approximately one million) have a speech or language difficulty.
In Stoke on Trent the figure is much higher than this - evidence from Sure Start local programmes suggests that more than half of the children in Stoke on Trent are at risk of a language or speech delay.
