- The rash can appear all over the body, including the mouth, ears, ge****ls, and scalp.

Reading aloud with children can create strong bonds with loved ones and helps your child develop and learn. A child with a motor delay may also have delayed, or hard to understand speech, and may not be able to sit without help. But your child will enjoy cuddling with you and sharing a colorful and interesting book. Over time, reading aloud can help motor skills, speech and language development, and play.

If you find reading with your child challenging, consider trying these tips during your next reading session together:

1. Talk about the pictures while you read. Help your toddler point to certain things in the book.

2. Read books that have rhymes, like Mother Goose or Dr. Seuss.

3. Read together at a time of day when reading is fun and relaxing.

4. Clap your hands and help your child clap along to the rhythm of the words.

5. Use books that have thick, sturdy pages.
