Name: Pratibha

Yes, I narrate stories and read poems for my three year old. Like a story in your article, telling stories and reciting poems is our everyday bedtime activity. My son and I also come up with our own poems. I give him some rhyming words and he makes sentences out of them. For example, I give him words like-cat, mat, hat, rat, and then he makes sentences and use one of these words as the last word of each sentence. Yesterday he came up with a funny poem out of these words. ‘We have a cat, she seats on the mat, and we have a rat that hides under the hat, to see the cat’. This is the poem he made. He enjoy singing nursery rhyme a lot. He knows most of the nursery rhymes by heart.
