This seminar focused on helping parents understand the major characteristics of young children\u2019s (3-4 years old) language development and offering some guidance on parent-child oral language practices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on enhancing young children\u2019s ability to express themselves using vocabularies, this seminar highlighted three aspects, namely, \u201cenriching vocabularies\u201d, \u201csentence building\u201d, \u201clinkage to reading\u201d, and introduced a series of skills and games that parents and their children can play at home. The seminar was held mainly in an interactive mode despite the distance. Games and parent-child language practices were incorporated into the seminar. Children\u2019s active participation and enjoyment of these games enhanced parents\u2019 confidence in adopting these games in their homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DLCRE partnership project \u201cGEGCLEAR\u201d is funded by the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gegfoundation.org.mo\/zh-hant\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Galaxy Entertainment Group Foundation<\/a>.
