First 5 Forever is a early literacy initiative that supports families in giving children the best start in life through language and literacy rich experiences. Focused on the first five years of a child's development, it encourages parents and caregivers to talk, read, sing and play with their children every day. These simple, everyday interactions help build strong foundations for learning communication, and emotional wellbeing. Delivered through Queensland public libraries, First 5 Forever offers free resources, programs, and support to help families nurture a love of books and learning from birth.
