Reading Books to Babies

Hello Ladies, I think some of you are regulars now. Welcome back!!! and please like us on FB and subscribe to us to encourage and grow this blog.

When I was looking for some colorful books for my baby who is 6 months old, everyone around me laughed. But I still continued my hunt for some picture books for my baby.

From when she was three months she was so fascinated with television, she used to love the colors and sounds. So I thought I might as well show her colorful books, and I’m anyways the 24/7 radio in my house, so audio will be mine.

I heard book reading develops the cerebral activity and kids go on to be good readers in future. My aunt’s friend used to give her son a newspaper to read, she was ok with him tearing it into million bits, but she would not stop.

Thanks to my sister’s best friend, she gifted me these colorful picture books and I found some on animals and birds. Since baby can’t sit up, I sleep next to her and show her pictures and read out the names to her with sounds. She is so excited when I turn every page, she would just start kicking and smiling. God knows what she understands but she patiently sits through the reading sessions and goes on OOOOOOOOOOh OOOOOOOOOOh like she is done reading.. hehe..

We even read out a story book to her, she was exited too.

Do try it out with your babies and let me know.
