 TS:</strong> Reading and singing help your baby's brain and language devel
 opment. Reciting nursery rhymes and singing songs help your baby get ready
  to read. Babies who have been exposed to books and reading grow up to bec
 ome children who perform better in school.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>This work
