Bennett-Armistead said videos lack the ability to interact and provide the human contact that is vital to early learning. &ldquo;So, if I&rsquo;m reading to my baby, I&rsquo;m looking at her face,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;I might notice that she&rsquo;s maybe drifting in her attention, so I&rsquo;m going to make my voice a little louder or a little quieter, or I&rsquo;m going to do something to regain her attention. And a video is static, it can&rsquo;t respond in those same ways.&rdquo; Bennett-Armistead said Maine is ranked among the top states in the nation for parents reading aloud to children, and added it doesn&rsquo;t require a big investment, as books can be checked out from the local library.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Susan Bennett-Armistead, a professor of literacy
