1. Healthy Food – breastmilk or appropriate formula, baby food / smashed table food.
2. Safe Place to Sit (with buckles) – carseat, high chair, stroller.
3. Something to Hold – this should also be something that is “mouthable” (but not small enough to swallow).
4. Board Books – reading to kids isn’t enough, they should have the chance to hold / taste / sample books themselves.
5. Clean Environment, Clean Clothes, Clean Body.
6. Conversation – they understand far more than you think! Talk to them as an adult and forgo the baby’ish sounding talk.
7. L.O.V.E. – ’nuff said!
