Babies need to be able to play with board books with their hands and even their mouths. When they are allowed to hold, shake and turn a book in their hands, they are engaging in important work! Babies are figuring out how books work - which way is up and how to turn the pages. Sharing books with babies is an important first step in helping them develop a natural interest and love of reading!
I bounce you here,
I bounce you there,
I bounce you, bounce you everywhere!
