Mostly bought the books to replace the one the older boy ruined when he was younger. They are great books and about the only ones the younger one will sit through.wich isnt saying much since they are very short.
This collection of books is a good start and some of the best books by Sandra Boynton. The pictures are fun and have bright colors.
I realized I (and my daughter) love these books. I've never done a review before, but as I looking for more books for my 17 month old daughter, I kept coming across Sandra Boynton.
She loves the 'Opposites' book so much that several months ago, she started calling it by name. Almost every night, we use 'The Going to Bed Book', however sometimes she likes to read it during the day.
She loves to point at the 'moon'. The rhyming makes it easy to read and I guess fun to hear.
The only reason I knew about her is because my mom had given me the book 'Moo Baa La La La', one of my daughter's favorites.
We love these books and will read them long after my kids have "outgrown" them. Board books that will withstand toddlers are always a great choice.
We got a lot of books as gifts when our daughter (now 17 months old) was born, and the ones that have given her the most pleasure and use are the Boynton books, particularly the four in this collection (also you should get pajama time, barnyard dance, and hippos go bezerk).Our daughter has loved these books from the time she was 2 months old and we're still reading them to her. I've got them all memorized at this point so I'm thinking of getting some more, just to mix it up (We've got 12 now).I can't reccomend these highly enough. Thanks Sandra Boynton.
Even though these books were listed under "books for babies" it's not all that suitable or interesting for children below 2 years, I would think. My son (10 months) enjoys looking at pictures on baby books & even recognize certain characters, but he didn't find these interesting at all. I think its because of the pastel & dull color shades chosen. It's not vibrant enough to catch the baby's eye.But of course the text are very interesting & some what funny for older children.
