I received a sample for this review/feature. Opinions expressed are my own.
School is back in session and I already miss summer! With another school year comes more learning and of course more reading. This month’s Book Buddies selections have some really fun choices to help make the transition easier for your little ones.
I think my all time favorite books for babies and toddlers are the adorable ones that include a puppet in the middle. So stinkin’ cute!!! Five Little Monkeys Finger Puppet Book from Little Learners (978-1-4723-2368-2) is as cute as it comes. The chunky book is easy for small hands to hold and they can flip the pages as many times as they want and it won’t break.
This adorable nursery rhyme board book features a fun monkey character finger puppet toy built into the story, encouraging interactive play, hand-eye coordination, and language development for babies aged 6+ months. The perfect size for little hands, it is ideal for reading, and playtime on-the-go.
LL Peek-a-Boo Rainbow (978-1-4723-0593-0) is another Little Learners board book but this one takes you through 5 colors of the rainbow. It also includes a small hole where you get to peek into the next page. Another great one for toddlers!
Can you guess what color is next in the rainbow? Explore your way through the peek-a-boo holes and see a red apple, green frog and more in this new addition to the bestselling Little Learners range from Parragon. This unique, chunky board book has been developed with an educational consultant to support the learning of colors and simple concepts. The interactive play format, with peek-a-boo holes to follow through each page, supports development of hand-eye coordination and creative thinking in babies and toddlers from 0+.
My First 100 Words (978-1-4748-0390-8) is a big hardback book with colorful pages full of scenes with objects to point out. A picture of the item next to the word is listed across the bottom of the page. Then your toddler points out those items in the scene above. It is actually super cute and a great way to have them point out things to you.
Help your child explore new worlds and build vocabulary. With 100 essential first words and vibrant pictures throughout, this is an ideal first book for young children everywhere!
Frozen Snowflakes and Sparkles (978-1-4748-2148-3) is a coloring book with 4 included crayons that is full of activities, stickers and coloring sheets. This is perfect for Frozen fans and is a great on the go activity book for car trips.
Join Anna and Elsa for a fantastic Frozen adventure! Complete the activities and use your crayons to make the pictures look pretty.
Pixar Lots to Discover (978-1-4748-3762-0) is a MASSIVELY THICK coloring book for fans of Pixar movies! This book is so full of cute images to color that it would take hours to complete. Coloring books for kids don’t get bigger or better than this!
With over 300 pages and 40 stickers, this is the ultimate coloring book for any Disney Pixar fan. Add color to each of Riley’s emotions, brighten up Arlo the Apatosaurus and his dino buddies, and so much more! Then use your awesome stickers to decorate the pages.
Lots of Dots for Little Hands (978-1-4748-1440-9) is an activity book where all the pages are wipe-able so they can be re-used again and again. My preschooler thinks half the fun is wiping away the marks she makes with the included wipe-clean marker.
Start little, learn BIG with this wipe-clean, dot-to-dot activity book! Inventive prompts will inspire your child to complete the fun dot-to-dot pictures, while gentle, educational concepts throughout – such as counting, matching and opposites – introduce learning in a friendly way. Plus, the wipe-clean format means your little one can enjoy this activity book again and again! Comes with detachable wipe-clean pen.
Each of these books are cute and will keep kids reading. I want to wish everyone a fabulous new school year and I hope it is full of amazing new books.
