Let's watch a video of a father and an older child both attending to a book about trains.  Notice how this father is providing an opportunity to interact with his son. This activity is giving his son the opportunity to express himself both verbally and nonverbally, showing his interest. This father is paying attention to the child’s interest and expanding on what his child says with new words and information.
