About this listen
In this episode of Early Years Together, Dr Jacqueline Young and Deborah Brown take a deep dive into the power of open‑ended questions in early years interactions. Building on previous conversations about high‑quality adult–child communication, they explore what open‑ended questions are, why they matter, and how parents and practitioners can use them to nurture rich, imaginative, and sustained talk.
This episode blends research insights, real‑world practice, and practical examples — perfect for anyone supporting children’s communication and language development.
Subscribe, share, and step into a podcast made for reflective early years practice.
