WAKING UP, SLEEPING, LAUGHING, CRYING… WHAT THE BABY DOES WHEN HE GOES…?
WHEN THE BABY WAKES UP, HE GIGGLES A LITTLE, CALLS MOM, CHANGES HIS DIAPER, PLAYS WHILE SITTING UP…
WHEN THE BABY EATS, HE SITS ON THE HIGH CHAIR, HOLDS THE FORK, OPENS HIS MOUTH, CHEWS THE FOOD… HUMMMM, HOW DELICIOUS!
Routine for the baby is very important. It brings safety and comfort, helping him to understand the world and develop a sense of time.
In this book, routine is the main theme, showing the baby the actions and reactions that he may have when waking up, eating, crying, laughing, walking, bathing, and sleeping.
Reading to a baby is something very pleasurable and reading can become part of your daily routine. In addition to strengthening the bond with the adult reader, he will learn to relate the content of the texts and images to the events of his daily life.
My name is Aloma. I’m a mother, pedagogue, writer, and editor. Some of my happiest memories of my children’s early childhood are the moments in which we read together. I used to read to them every night before bed, in quiet afternoons and on rainy weekends, and whenever they’d come asking me to read them a book. Or reread it... I believe reading is part of a healthy childhood, and books use words and images to fuel the thoughts and emotions of children.
WHEN THE BABY EATS, HE HOLDS THE FORK.
WHEN HE LAUGHS, HE OPENS HIS MOUTH WIDE.
WHEN HE SLEEPS, HE DRINKS HIS MILK!
SHOW YOUR BABY WHAT HIS DAILY LIFE IS LIKE AND TEACH HIM TO LOVE HIS ROUTINE!
