Singing to Your Baby
Singing is a fun way to play with your baby and teach new words. Music, rhythm, and rhyme also help prepare babies for reading someday. And your baby doesn't care how you sound!
Sing throughout the day
Diaper changes, baths, car rides, and bedtime are all good times. Your baby will start to expect it and may even join in.
Make it a whole-body activity
Add silly sounds, hand motions, and dance moves.
Sing what you like
Nursery rhymes, songs on the radio, songs from your childhood, anything goes. Your library has kids' music you can borrow too.
Songs to try
"If You're Happy and You Know It," "The Wheels on the Bus," "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes," "Old MacDonald," and "Hush, Little Baby."
