A recent study in the Journal of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics Studies states: "children who were read to as newborns have a larger vocabulary, as well as more advanced mathematical skills, than other kids their age. There's also a direct link between how many words a baby hears each day and her language skills. One study found that babies whose parents spoke to them a lot scored higher on standard tests when they reached age 3 than children whose parents weren't as verbal... after reading to your newborn for a while, you'll actually notice your little one responding to the rhythmic movement of your voice with her arms and legs... From 0 to 3 months, your child will start focusing his or her eyes on simple patterns on the pages. Reading picture books presents your newborn with a variety of shapes, letters and colors that she will begin to recognize as the months go on." --- Here is some vital information concerning baby eye development from the American Optometric Association - "Up to about 3 months of age, babies' eyes do not focus on objects more than 8 to 10 inches from their faces. At birth, babies' vision is abuzz with all kinds of visual stimulation. While they may look intently at a highly contrasted target, babies have not yet developed the ability to easily tell the difference between two targets or move their eyes between the two images. Their primary focus is on objects 8 to 10 inches from their face or the distance to parent's face. During the first months of life, the eyes start working together and vision rapidly improves. Eye-hand coordination begins to develop as the infant starts tracking moving objects with his or her eyes and reaching for them. By eight weeks, babies begin to more easily focus their eyes on the faces of a parent or other person near them. For the first two months of life, an infant's eyes are not well coordinated and may appear to wander or to be crossed. This is usually normal. However, if an eye appears to turn in or out constantly, an evaluation is warranted. Babies should begin to follow moving objects with their eyes and reach for things at about 3mo"
