reading to bubs

do any of you read to your bub?
If so what books are you reading to him/her??

With Annabelle I read, sang and listened to mozart (we still do all of these ;)) Annabelle is a VERY smart little girl and way ahead of her yrs (old soul ;)) I put some of it down to those things I did from word go :)

Read ANYTHING thats what we do. Go with 'pretty' stories, fairytales etc

I read to Liebling in the womb before he could hear me! I read anything appropriate - I think I read him Anne of Green Gables as well as When We Were Very Young and Alice In Wonderland. We didn't have many baby books LOL. We also did loads of songs - not just The Owl and the Pussycat or the Fishy song but also normal music. I played the piano a lot to him and DS loves playing the piano now.

Liebling has wonderful language skills - many other parents comment on how clear his language is. He's a great communicator. Not sure if it's womb-reading or not but I can tell you it doesn't hurt and it starts you talking to your baby, which certainly does help in the long run.

We loved "Oh Baby the Places You'll Go" and "Angel in the Waters" (if you google Angel in the Waters, you can read it online, it's beautiful).

i bouhgt "Angels in the waters" cant wait to read to bubs :p

I'm reading to Peanut every night. At the moment it's just one book called "You're all my favourites". It's so very cute and makes me feel connected to my little one. When DH comes home I'm going to let him read to Peanut so that Peanut gets to know his voice. Can't wait.

I have just started to play the flute for my Peanut, its been awhile so not too sure how much Peanut will be enjoying it at this stage, hopfully I will get better by the time Peanut arrives! DH comes home every night and tells Peanut all about his day and makes up his own stories for Peanut, its very cute. I have a lot of books coming next week and plan to do lots of reading once I have these, all I have at the moment are crime books and that is too scary for our little one!
