As they grow into sitting up, find old (picture) books you are willing to sacrifice to hands not yet good at page turning at let them at it - and READ to them every night. I love reading to kids and will do so at every opportunity. Make sure you have lots of books around the house and be seen reading them and looking things up in them when the inevitable "why's" start (about age 2).<br /><br />Unfortunately, even dance-class attending readers of fantasy have their moments as whiny, sticky fingered brats, though.<br /><br />Ask me how I know!!!RobHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01524244144970381066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-109955980329789216.post-79821552660671946602011-02-08T09:40:40.032+11:002011-02-08T09:40:40.032+11:00Children are always so hard to look through.
