Reading Aloud Video Clips

Each of the following video clips lasts roughly 1-2 minutes.

Babies use all their senses to understand books
Your baby loves your voice
Once babies start to move everything changes
This doesn't look like reading but it is
Asking questions keeps you connected
Reading is conversation between you and your child
Sometimes your baby feels like reading and sometimes she doesn't

The READ TO ME Program encourages parents to read books to their babies. Through workshops parents experience the pleasures in picture books for children and learn to make the reading fun for everyone. These video clips were produced by the READ TO ME Program.

The KCLS Children's Librarians can provide free Early Literacy presentations for groups of parents, caregivers and early child professionals. The length of the presentation can be tailored to fit your needs and STARS-approved education credit can be provided. The group must reside or work in the KCLS service area and a minimum of five people per group is needed. We can present at your group meeting location or at the library. To schedule a presentation, please contact your local library and ask for the Children's Librarian.
