- Choose books with repeating words, rhymes, pictures of animals, and pictures of familiar objects.
- Look for books your baby can interact with, such as lift-the-flap books.
- Try taking a verbal break and just turn the pages for your baby while she looks at the pictures. Give her time to find her own story in the artwork.
- Put books in every room your baby spends time in, and keep them where he can get to them easily—piled in a basket, not spine-out on a shelf. If the books are accessible, you'll both pick them up more often.
- Let your baby set the pace of your reading time. Encourage him to touch and help turn the pages.
