Maybe it doesn't come naturally, but it sure was learned. There is nothing I love more than playing the same games over and over, especially with my own children. The best books are the old books, dr. seuss, berenstein bears, maybe even start reading a shorter chapter book like some Judy Bloom. We've been reading edgar allen poe at bedtime. I lay her down and then read out loud. It's more my speed, but helps develop a strong vocabulary. Growing up my mom had an in home daycare, so I’ve never had the problem of playing with children.

I feel totally comfortable in my abilities to take care of my daughter (almost 2), but when I have to help out in the church nursery I feel so inadequate and clumsy.
