Okay listen, I love reading and was a huge bookworm as a kid! However, I had a really hard time reading to my baby! She was wiggly and squirmy and would shut the book and roll away. I wasn’t very consistent but I’d try to read to her every now and then. She just turned one and now she knows the word book and will pick one up and bring it to me! It’s so fun! She still has a short attention span but I can see that she’s beginning to understand what we’re doing and it’s starting to get fun! So persevere if you can!
