1000 Books Before Kindergarten: Newborns
Created on March 1, 2022, 11:40 am
Last Updated October 14, 2023, 2:26 pm
Reading is one of the very best ways to improve a child's vocabulary, and babies start learning words almost as soon as they're born! Very young infants do best with books with bold colors, photos of other babies, or stark black and white. These images are easier for their developing eyes to see, and will catch their interest more. Once your baby can grasp, board books are a great way to let your child figure out how books work!
