We had two new babies in one of our classes this week. They are both only 2 months old. It has been a while since I've been around such tiny babies. Mothers don't tend to get out of the house to a program like ours until their babies have turned at least 3 months old. As these mothers worked on their projects, leaving their babies on the mats, I had the privilege of reading to each one individually - lying on the mat beside them. At this age, the most response I get from reading them a book is simply a head turned in the direction of the voice that is reading to them. It is a great feeling to be getting such an early start with these babies.
