Like Father, Like Daughter

Quote:

"In families with two working parents,fathers make important contributions to children’s early language skills.Results from a new study by FPG Child Development Institute show that children whose fathers’vocabulary was more varied when they were two,had greater language skills at age three.Mother’s vocabulary was not found to have a significant impact on children’s language skills. The findings are published in the November/December 2006 issue of the Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology."

Let's see, i don't know how rich my vocabulary is and when i say rich vocabulary, it means having it, using it, expressing it, and so on. Maybe reading aloud Alice in Wonderland or The Secret Garden to my daughters would suffice? I'm not sure, but you can't blame me for trying, can you? :-P
