my 10 year old is going to be a big brother how do I prepare him?

My son has Down Syndrome, he use to have a fear of babies but not anymore. I was wondering if anyone could suggest some ways to get him ready for this life changing event? I have had a baby come over to visit with its mother and he just wanted to touch its belly then he would giggle! I guess he thought it was too squishy.

Anyway any suggestions would be appreciated!!!

I didn't want to read and run. Hope you find a solution. My niece has a younger brother. She has autism. Her mum conditions her by being around little children and teaching her how to love and behave gently amongst the smaller kids. This also helped with her loving her little brother a lot.
