Talk about what you see and hear. She's flying up to her nest in the tree. I'll lift you up to the window so you can see it. The baby may use the same word to mean different things. Read with your baby every day.
Babies enjoy short, simple stories, rhymes, and songs.
Read the same books over and over, and also read new ones. Because your baby probably won't pay attention for long, it's best to read for a short while many times during the day. Point to the pictures and name the objects. Ask your baby to point and name things, too. Smile, change your tone of voice, nod, and make faces when you read.
