Instructions
- Let’s get cozy and snuggle together — we can be drinking milk, reading books, singing lullabies, or just sharing a moment.
- I’ll say, “Kiss!” and kiss you once, “Kiss kiss!” and kiss you twice, or “Kiss kiss kiss” and kiss you three times. I feel so much love for you!
- Around 6-8 months, children start imitating our gestures. If your child is old enough, see if they’ll imitate your kisses. Soon, your child will learn to connect the word kiss with an actual kiss, and the feeling of love between you.
