Note to Parents
Listening to the rhythm and cadence of the words while reading a book provides a rich
language model for baby. Seeing written words on a page and hearing those words tell a
story or describe something lays the foundation for the "mechanics" of reading.
When first introducing this system to baby, be sure to use it like any book you would
read to your child. Take a moment to point to an object on the page and describe it. For
example, you might say, "See the bird." Point to it and then add more description, like
"The bird is flying." Try this with other objects on the page too. If your baby seems to be
responsive to the idea of object identification, you might play a "find" game. "Where's the
bird? Show me where the bird is on the page. That's right. The bird is flying in the sky."
This engages your baby in the book, even before learning how to read the words.
As your child grows into toddlerhood, words may begin to be recognized as part of the
"ABC's" and a few sight words or symbols might be recognized, especially logos of familiar
restaurants, stores or household items. This is an exciting time for learning! Take cues
from your child, and offer books and reading opportunities to continue an interest and joy
of reading. Research has shown that children who are read to very early, learn to love
reading and become better at it!
