How Do I Prepare My Child for a New Baby?

You can prepare your child for a new baby by:
- Giving them a baby doll and inviting them to help care for the fake baby.
- Spending special time with your child before the baby comes and after the baby comes.
- Talk to your child about having a new baby in the home and what it means.
- Invite your child to help take care of the new baby. They can help give the new baby a bath, read to the new baby, and so much more!
