Parents should adopt a five-a-day approach, with daily activities to help children reach their full potential.
The think tank CentreForum says the government should start a national campaign promoting better parenting.
It said that providing children with quality care in their early years was crucial.
They recommend that parents should, every day:
1. Read to their child for 15 minutes.
2. Play with your child on the floor for 10 minutes.
3. Talk with their child for 20 minutes with the television off.
4. Adopt positive attitudes towards their child and praise them frequently.
5. Give their child a nutritious diet to aid development.

Does anyone know how to contact Apple by email because I am finding it particularly frustrating that I am unable to get email responses from Apple support?
It seems incredible to me that a technically advanced company insists on me using the old-fashioned telephone - my least favourite form of communication. When I sent an email to Apple support, I received an automated reply that made it quite clear that I was not going to get a response unless I phoned them and that they would charge me for the privilege after my warranty runs out.
I have also given Apple feedback via their website several times and have never had any kind of response from them. Although I like Apple hardware very much, they are going to have to improve their customer communication if I am going to be a long term customer with them.
