Reading readiness- The First 2000 Days

Now that your baby is 23 months she begins to pay attention to signs, books etc. When you are walking she will begin to point out things that she did not notice before.
 If you observe your toddler you will notice that when she is interacting with a book she is looking at it intensely  as if she is reading yes she is ready for reading . You should have books that are age appropriate for your toddler. The books should be hard cover with large print and colorful. You should  have  at least 8 books  in a bin on the floor this will allow your baby to have access when she wants to read. Learning should be fun so that your toddler will enjoy learning. You should praise your toddler as you want to build confidence this is one of the social emotional skills that is needed for school. It is good to read the same books to your baby a few times. This will allow your baby to remember the story and she will usually pick up the book and begin reading it and she will remember sections of the book. Each time that you read the story your toddler will enjoy it.
