[quote=Anonymous]I started reading and playing with books when DD was about 3 / 4 months old. But not with the expectation that she would learn to read or even understand what we were doing. The books were another form of stimulation. She liked to look at the pictures, I talked her through the storyline, and she would touch and feel the pages (several of our early books were sensory / touch books). It was just another way to engage with her. It wasn't until about 11 / 12 months that DD started to really enjoy being read to and was seemingly interested in the story (though who knows how much she really understood). Now at 2.5, DD loves to be read to and loves books - looking at them, holding them, telling me / DH about what's taking place on the page. Books are one of her favorite past times at this point.
