Reading aloud to your baby is an important form of stimulation, exposing her to early ways of communicating.
What You Need:
- Cloth or board books with sturdy pages that have simple and bright, colorful pictures
What To Do:
- While reading, talk about and point to each picture. For example, “This dolphin is big. This mynah bird is small.”
- Encourage her to participate. Let your baby touch the books and point to pictures.
- Ask questions like “What does the dog say?” Then follow with a simple answer: “The dog says, ‘Bow wow.’”
- Remember that most young babies can pay attention for only a few seconds! It’s OK to stop when she loses interest. Babies will mouth and chew on books and that’s okay!
