I was looking online and found some very helpful handouts from Reading Rockets on Tips for Parents of Babies and Tips for Parents of Toddlers. In these articles they give you ideas about reading to your child. They also say to talk with your child all day long and to use adult vocabulary.
We have some books in our collection that have great ideas about reading with your child.
