Children learn everything at an astounding rate. Learning a language is no different. Sometimes it can be really tricky to keep your language developing fast enough to keep up!

It is important to find material that can help to keep the language lively, fun, and with enough interesting words to explain the complex world that your baby is a part of. To help you with targeting material to suit the language milestones of your tamaiti, read about children's language milestones.

In this section you can find printable word lists, rotarota (rhyming verses), games for your whānau, and some ideas about other places where you can find good material to support you speaking Māori at home.
