Reading Aloud with Infants and Toddlers in Child Care Settings: An Observational Study.
Honig, Alice Sterling; Shin, Meera
Early Childhood Education Journal, v28 n3 p193-97 Spr 2001
Examined caregiver reading patterns with infants in metropolitan day care centers. Found effects for infant age, group size, and gender on caregiver's reading habits. Found that caregiver reading was quite brief for all ages and that caregivers found it easier to read to female than to male infants. Findings suggest the need for reading courses designed for infant caregivers. (JPB)
