Baby's First Books

From Parents.Com

"Begin storytime now to bond with your child and give her a head start on learning.
By Pamela Kramer

"At this age, your baby is more likely to try to put a book in her mouth than to turn its pages. But that doesn't mean it's too soon to make reading a part of your little one's life. Experts say exposing babies to books in the first year is crucial to their intellectual and emotional growth. In fact, research shows that reading to infants can help jump-start brain development and can even make them more receptive to learning."

Select Books For Different Ages

"Did you know that the human's emotional growth follows a very specific pattern... unlike some other areas of growth it's rarely accelerated (though can be stunted) and we don't skip stages... this can make selecting books for different ages exciting in very interesting ways!" ~~Mary K

Baby's First Books

Birth to 18 months

"When you read aloud to your baby, you're teaching her to recognize that different sounds have different meanings-and that's the foundation of speech and comprehension," says Marilyn Segal, Ph.D., dean emeritus of the Institute for Early Childhood Studies at Nova Southeastern University, in Fort Lauderdale (Parents.com)

Read to Your Kids

"Being held on your lap and hearing your voice during regular reading sessions gives your baby a sense of stability and security," says Betty Ann Watson, Ed.D., director of early-childhood education at Harding University, in Searcy, Arkansas. "It also creates a positive association with books, and that encourages a lifelong love of reading." ~~Parents.com

Reading A Favorite Book

With Great Grandmother

Grandmother Read To Me

"Picture books with bright, simple images provide visual stimulation that enhances your child's cognitive skills: Pointing out objects and talking about them with your baby--"See those yellow socks? They're just like the yellow socks on your feet!"--helps her link names with specific objects and shows her that what she sees in books exists in real life." ~~Pamela Kramer, Parents.com
