Father's who use variety of words while communicating with their children help strengthen their language and vocabulary skills.
Researchers from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill analysed 2-year-olds interacting with their parents and found that the more diverse vocabulary the father used, the more highly developed the child's language skills were at the age of 3.
It seems important for fathers to talk to their children and use a variety of words to their child.
The key factors that predicted a child's language development were the diversity of the father's vocabulary, the mother's level of education, and the quality of the day-care the child was receiving. They determined childcare quality based on several factors including child-teacher-ratio, teachers' interactions with children and teacher's education level.
