Sharing stories with your little one
Simple ways to enjoy books with babies and toddlers, from the team at Twinnie Day Nursery.
Start early
Even young babies enjoy looking at pictures and listening to your voice. Board books with bright images are a great first step.
Make it a routine
A short story at bedtime or after nursery becomes a calm, special time together and builds a love of reading.
Talk about the pictures
Point, name and ask simple questions. For older children, ask what they think will happen next.
Stories at nursery
Story time and circle time are part of every day at Twinnie, and Early Learners take home book bags to share with you.
