Your precious little one will problably be sitting in the high chair for meals from around 6 months of age.
At the end of each meal have a short "reading" time. Simply wipe down the tray and give your child a board or plastic book.
Yes, at first your child will eat it, turn it round and round, or throw it on the floor.
However, if you also read at this time, your child will begin to mimic your model. Have the microwave or other timer signal when reading time is over.
If you are calm and consistent, you can have 10 - 20 minutes of silent reading time at the end of each meal by the time your child is two years old.
You will also be developing in your child a life long love of reading, and have teens who adore books.
