What you need
- A few stories, songs or rhymes you enjoy
What to try
- Find time each day if you can to enjoy stories, songs or rhymes with your baby.
- Repeat their favourites often and pause to give them time to respond with excitement.
- If they don’t have favourites yet, repeat your own favourites and see if this helps your baby remember what is going to happen.
Good to know
Repeating stories, songs and rhymes can help your baby to feel secure, as familiarity can be reassuring. Repetition also helps your baby to begin to remember key parts of the rhyme.
