Daily reading is a gift to your baby. 📚

And this mom is giving an absolute master class in how to do it right.

Note first that she’s reading face-to-face. At this age (10 weeks), there is literally nothing more thrilling - or instructional - to your newborn than your face.

Check out how intently focused baby is on mom’s voice and facial expressions.

Through careful study this little one will soon begin to mimic what they see and hear.

Mom reads with expression and emotion, alternating between glances at the text and direct eye contact with her adoring audience of one.

And there is so much going on in that developing brain.

Did you know that during the earliest years of life babies form new neural connections at an estimated 1 million per SECOND?

With these types of rich daily interactions, mom is setting her baby up for a lifetime of success. And you can do the same.

Read, talk, sing and play with your baby.

Kudos to KelseyPaumer (IG) on this fantastic and educational 🎥 clip.
