Someone else said it but I’m going to say it again because it’s a big deal. Read to your child every day. Seriously. Start super super early. Point to words as you are reading them.
Reading is the gateway to most other knowledge and the sooner you start and more of it you do, it makes a big difference. Some studies in the past (citation needed) have shown a link between the number of books around a child’s home and their intelligence.
i have a 3.5 year old, weve been reading to her since she could keep her eyes open. she begs for more books every night, and most afternoons. she knows the words to a lot of them by heart, but repetition, at least in the early days, is great for language development.
