My Baby Can Read!

So, you have brought a beautiful baby boy or girl into this world as a first time parent, or maybe you already a few children. You have taken close and loving care of you child for a few months or years, fed them, clothed them, played with them, put them to sleep and provided for them. Now you lovingly start to see them progress and advance as they attempt to write, talk, and communicate with you and others around them. They gradually begin to sound out letters and words and the names of different things around them. They are beginning a crucial component of communication and learning: reading. During these first years of a babies life, it is important to remember that teaching your baby to read is going to pave the way towards a lifetime of learning and new exciting things as your child goes through school, college, into a new career and eventually when the cycle starts over and they begin teaching their kids how to read.
Teaching your baby to read is the basic building block for education and it can not only be a fun learning experience for the baby, but for the parents or people who are helping. You can turn it into a daily activity and your child can read on a frequent basis depending on your schedule and how often you would like to teach your baby to read. A few ways that you could try in order to start the process purchasing the appropriate items and supply.
Shop for books specifically meant for babies that are just starting and learning how to read, particularly ones with bright colors and pictures - something that will grab and keep the child attention and interest. Second, you could buy cards with letters and small words that you could use to test and go over as the baby can start to become familiar with the new letters and words more easily. Next, set up a routine, time and place to teach your baby to read. This way, you and your baby will get used to "reading time" and you are likely to be more organized and better prepared for a smooth session. Start slowly with the letters and words. If the child has trouble on something, give him or her time and remember, take your time. Keep going over it until they get it. Once they get it, you can advance onto more letters and material. Also, if you like, use little toys and animals or items that begin with the letter or consist of the word, to make teaching your baby to read easier. Another option would be to get a teacher or professional to help within your routine. Don't forget to reward your baby for their hard work as they learn!
