Don't worry too much, you have lot's of time! I started Little Reader at 4 months and had the same problem with my son paying attention paying attention. I decided to take off a few weeks and try again. We tried off and on until 12 months. At 12 months he started really liking Little Reader, and at 14 months he LOVES it and gets mad if we don't show it to him. He is really making connections with knowing a word has a meaning and what the meaning is, he has enough real life experience to relate to the pictures, and he is responsive when we play and engage with each word. He is learning so much more than he was earlier and I feel the time I spent worrying about getting the sessions in when he was younger was really a waste. Kids learn the most when they are having fun and want to learn, so don't stress at this young age! Eating, sleeping and learning about their body is really what is most important to them at 4 months through when they can crawl and walk.
