Building Bright Futures Through Words, Stories, and Songs
The Dr. Seuss Foundation and First 5 San Diego have partnered to bring you “Talk, Read, Sing with Dr. Seuss”—a campaign celebrating the magic of words, stories, and songs in early childhood development.
The Power of Talk, Read, Sing
Research shows that 90% of a child’s brain develops before age five. This critical window is where language, literacy, and social-emotional skills take root. Simple, playful interactions—talking, reading, and singing—help build a strong foundation for a child’s future success.
Bringing Dr. Seuss’s World to Life
Dr. Seuss’s imaginative storytelling makes learning fun! Through his beloved books, children and caregivers can explore, create, and dream, turning every moment into a playful adventure.
Why it Matters
- Talking helps children develop vocabulary and communication skills.
