Reading to Infants
Reading with children is one of the most influential activities that parents can do; it has a permanent impact on their cognitive development and their learning potential. Daily reading time can, and should, be started around six months of age. Infants do best with simple board books where you point out something on each page. Don’t worry if they would rather just chew on the books—they are curiously exploring, and that is learning too! Books with simple flaps that open on each page also are enticing to children of this age.
