Classic Picture Books–Our Favorites

by Carolyn | Animal books, Baby, Board Books, Book Lists, Character Training, Classics, Education, Newbery, Older Elementary, Picture Books, Toddler

Indestructibles: Books Kids (Almost) Can’t Destroy

by Carolyn | Animal books, Baby, Board Books, For fun, Parenting, Picture Books, Preschool, Toddler, Wordless Books

Here it is, all shiny and new, the book I’m going to try to destroy. Just typing that makes me cringe. And why do I want to destroy this book? Well, the name is an inherent challenge: “Indestructibles: Chew Proof, Rip Proof, Nontoxic, 100% Washable.”...

Shape Books That Think Outside the Box (Board Book Edition)

by Carolyn | Animal books, Baby, Board Books, Book Lists, Education, Preschool, Toddler

Books are such great resources for teaching and reinforcing early learning concepts like shapes, colors, and numbers. But after a couple of kids (or even a couple of weeks reading the same books to one kid), we moms are ready for something a bit more interesting....
Favorite Board Books to Read Over and Over Again

Favorite Board Books to Read Over and Over Again

by Carolyn | Baby, Board Books, Book Lists, Preschool, Read Alouds, Recommendations, Toddler

Let’s face it, moms. We complain that our toddler wants to hear the same book over and over and over. But that’s usually because it’s a book we can’t stand. But we do the same thing! We have a few books we prefer to read. At least, I know I do!...

ABC Books That Tell A Story

by Carolyn | Animal books, Board Books, Picture Books, Preschool

Books About Bears Your Preschooler Will Love

Books About Bears Your Preschooler Will Love

by Carolyn | Animal books, Board Books, Book Lists, Picture Books, Preschool

Since the invention of the teddy bear (and perhaps before), kids have loved these cuddly creatures. I’m sure classic stories like Winnie the Pooh and A Bear Called Paddington have helped endear bears to our hearts. These picture books about bears for...

5 Bedtime Books That are Perfect for Snuggling

by Carolyn | Board Books, Book Lists, Picture Books, Preschool, Read Alouds

Bedtimes can be hectic! And if you have multiple kids, the act of getting everyone clean, pajamafied, and in (but not jumping on) their beds gets trickier. But days that end with a snuggle and a story are always sweeter. There are a couple of tricky things about...
