Sit with the infant in your lap and read A Circle Here, A Square There: My Shapes Board Book by David Diehl. As you read, encourage the infant to touch the pages. You can make a homemade book by cutting shapes from a variety of textured papers, such as construction paper, sandpaper, corrugated cardboard, and gluing each shape on a page. Label each with the name of the shape.
