One thing I say when doing a big book with infants is "I know your baby can't see the pictures in this big book clearly, but . . . they LOVE the sound of your voice. So, say the words along with me to help keep your baby's interest."
Open-ended Activities allows for creativity, dialog and exploration. Babies are VERY tactile. Keep them safe!
Greeting cards (without loose, small pieces & glitter), can be used to create stories/ID objects.
Plastic can covers can be decorated with stickers. (This develops fine motor skills)
Make your own book, using photo albums.
Play dress up--hats, slips, shoes.
A child can learn to turn pages by using catalogs.
Music is a large part of the child's world, sing your way through the day.
