COMPARTIR Este Libro
"¡COMPARTIR libros es un paso importante para los bebés!"
A Spanish translation of SHARE This Book, a science-based approach developed by a pediatrician and early literacy expert to help families read more enjoyably and interactively with their infants.
At first, this may seem hard to do. Do babies understand? What's the best way? The first STEP is to SHARE: S - Snuggle! H- Hands On! A- Affection (show lots)! R - Respond (Think STEP: Stretch, Talk, Explore, Patience)! E - Enjoy!
COMPARTIR translates in English to SHARE and is an acronym reflecting these practices:
• Carga a tu bebé en el regazo.
• Ofrécele un libro; deja que lo sostenga y aprenda cómo funciona.
• Muéstrale afecto a tu bebé y que leer juntos es algo maravilloso.
• Presta atención y responde a lo que hace tu bebé.
• A-l-a-r-g-a los sonidos de las palabras para que tu bebé pueda aprenderlos.
• Relata a tu bebé lo que dicen las imágenes.
• Trata de explorar nuevos sonidos de palabras de maneras divertidas.
• Intenta permanecer en calma y ten paciencia si tu bebé se frustra.
• Ríete, disfruta y diviértete con tu bebé.
La Academia Estadounidense de Pediatría recomienda que los padres comiencen a leer con sus bebés tan pronto sea posible después del nacimiento, cuando su cerebro está en rápido crecimiento. Compartir libros es una manera perfecta de establecer conexiones emocionales y desarrollar habilidades tempranas del lenguaje y una rutina saludable de lectura. El método "COMPARTIR", basado en la evidencia y desarrollado por un pediatra, muestra cómo aprovechar al máximo cada oportunidad maravillosa.
What is the SHARE STEP Method?
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that parents begin reading with their babies as soon as possible after birth, when their brain is growing fast. Book sharing is a perfect way to build emotional connection, early language skills, and a healthy routine of reading. Developed by a pediatrician, the evidence-based SHARE STEP method shows how to get the most out of every wonderful reading opportunity!
--- Snuggle on your lap.
---Hands on --> Let your baby hold the book and learn how it works.
---Affection --> Show your baby that reading together is love-ly.
---Respond to what your baby does:
---S-t-r-e-t-c-h word sounds so your baby can learn them--- Snuggle on your lap.
---Talk about the pictures.
---Explore new word sounds in fun ways.
---Patience --> If your baby gets frustrated, stay calm and keep trying.
---Enjoy --> Most of all, have fun!
