Baby Says Peek-a-boo! is the new book for 6-month- olds.

Both playing Peek-A-Boo and reading a book that has flaps that lift are activities that help baby brains grow. Games teach children expressions, suspense, emotions, and the element of surprise. Lifting the flaps contributes to an early literacy skill called "print motivation". As children are exposed to books and are read to regularly, their brains are stimulated to develop, and they slowly acquire the early literacy skills that will help them be "ready to learn" when they get to kindergarten.
