[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. For the 3.5 yr old, we only read "chapter books" that have pictures on every page: things like the Princess in Black, My Father's Dragon, Lulu and the Brontosaurus, and illustrated versions of classics like James & the Giant Peach. Those are fun to draw out over 2-3 nights (so that we get to talk/speculate about the plot the next day), but we still read regular non-chapter books too.

There are great tips here, but I also see that I need to calm down. I think it's BECAUSE my 15 mo. old is a second child that I was stressing. I know that children are all different, develop at different paces, have unique interests, but I have this persistent fear that between COVID and our very demanding jobs, we are dropping the ball in some respects with our second in a way that we did not with our first. So I'm hyper attentive to differences between the two - and nervous that they are correlated to the focus/attention/touch we've been able to give her versus the oldest. But as others said, this is a recipe for bad parenting and I need to just do my best and stop worrying.[/quote]

This is a good update, OP.  <3
