Creative Reading
Has your toddler ever wanted you to read the same book over and over again? My son will stay with the same book for sometimes 10-20 minutes. I have found a few things that help keep things interesting, and keep his interest. My son’s favorite is counting. Anything and everything that can be counted, we count it. Sometimes he will take my hand, put his hand in it and have me move his hand over various items to count them.
We also go through and identify colors and name objects. It’s a great way for him to learn and for us to spend quality time. Bridger also likes to look through music books. He just sits on the couch and pages through them.
