The Australian Government has commissioned literacy and numeracy brochures specifically for parents. The brochures provide practical ideas to encourage children’s literacy and numeracy development and enjoyment.
Numeracy: Families working it out together
There are three different brochures in this series, each targeting a different age group – the early years, and the middle and later years of primary school. Each brochure includes a fridge list of numeracy activities.
Parents Make the World of Difference 
This brochure is suitable for parents of younger children and contains a host of ideas to promote children’s interest in literacy.
