[quote=Anonymous]Just talk to your kid. Read lots of books. Narrate your trips to the grocery store (ohh - look at these green grapes! Let’s put them in the cart!”). Sing songs. Play with balls, and blocks, and puzzles. Spend lots of time outside. Visit the zoo or a farm or a construction site to watch the trucks. You really don’t need to formally teach your baby anything - and doing so takes away from what she should be doing: exploring the world in age appropriate ways. Introduce them to the world and surround them with love and language and she’ll do great. Once she’s about four, you can start introducing letters and filling in any holes in typical kindergarten knowledge, but if she’s typically developing you likely won’t even need to. [/quote]
