[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I started reading to my kids from the time they were newborns while nursing them.  They are trained to relax and sit or lie still when I am reading to them.

This may not help the OP, but hopefully other new moms should read to their kids, twice a day, and show them the pictures, so the kids learn to love being read to.

You were reading kids books or your adult book to them? I can't fathom reading kids books to a baby. I am far too selfish. Maybe I am paying the price. [/quote]

NP. Selfish? There are many fantastic children's books. I thought most people did this.[/quote]
What did you read your newborn?!?!?!?[/quote]

Are you OP? Do you not have any friends? My children "read" soft cover books with shapes and bright colors from day one, but we started reading them board books when they were newborns (The Hungry Little Caterpillar, 10 Little Toes, Taro Gomi books like "My Friends", etc...), then picture books, now in early ES we read chapter books WITH them.[/quote]
