[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a mom of 4 kids that are each about 2 years apart, so I've had kids at those ages twice. I guess I didn't worry to much about having books "tailored" to stages. [b]The babies would enjoy the same books as the older kids at bedtime[/b], and the older kids would enjoy re-hearing their baby favorites. By the time my kids were 4 or so they were able to read some on their own, so it was also good to have the big kids read to the little kids sometimes. And also, we'd read a lot at other times of day, not just bed time--so if there was a certain book that I felt was best for babies (like a board book) I'd just do that one with the baby while the older kids were at school or doing something else.[/quote] This. I mean, your baby doesn't know what you're saying anyway, so you could be reading Dante's Inferno and they would be fine.[/quote]
