[Reading-For-Healthy-Families] great baby and mom reading video

[Katie Anderson]

Hello!  In December I sent out a video of a mom reading to her son on YouTube at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/chimothy27/3429534057/.  If this link doesn't work, try cutting and pasting it into your browser.

Several of you asked if you could use this when conducting early literacy trainings so I contacted the person who posted the video.  The short answer is, YES you may use the YoutTube video "Reading Will" in your early literacy trainings as long as you give credit to Mark Evans.  Mark is the father of the baby in the video, the baby's name is Will.

I also thought you might like to read Mark's response to my inquiry. It is wonderful to have support for RFHF from kind strangers who understand the important of the work you are doing.

Katie,
  
  Thank you for contacting me regarding the video "Reading Will". I would  be happy for you to use the video, I am glad that you and your  colleagues have found it useful. From very early on Will showed  interest in books, and now at 17 months he still LOVES to be read to,  and loves to "read" by himself...he even "reads" to his stuffed  animals, it's very cute. Reading is a huge part of his day, and he  LOVES going to the library and getting new books. 
  
  I have looked at your website, and I really like what you guys are  doing, looks like an impressive program. If you can use this video in  any way to encourage people to read to their kids, please please use it.
  
  Thanks again, good luck with your training programs. And please let me  know if there's any other photos/videos you would like to use, I am  glad for people to use them as long as they credit me.
  
  Sincerely,
  
  Mark Evans

Look at this video!  http://www.flickr.com/photos/chimothy27/3429534057/
  
  What a great example of reading to a baby, and that a baby is able to pay  attention, engage, and lift flaps in a book!  This is truly a real-world  example of a baby and mom reading a book. 
  
  I found this looking for images for ECRR flier and brochure templates.  It  is just someone's personal video on flickr, a photo sharing site.  I  found it because they chose to register all their photos and videos under  creative commons.  
  
  What do you think?
