Patiently (and excitedly) awaiting!!

I came across these felt “busy books” in my quest for toys to entertain and engage my two kids (3.5 and 10 months) on the plane for our upcoming trip to Hawaii. Although we haven’t received them yet, I am very excited to! I can tell by the other reviews that these will be well worth it. I love the simplicity and variety of the types of activities shown in each book. After debating which would be best for each child, I ordered several of the preschool aged and baby/toddler ones, including Brainy Bunny, Little Lamb, I See Ice Cream, the Name & Age pages, Farmyard Fun, Happy Hippo, and Mighty Mouse. I went a little overboard and I plan to collect them all! Can’t wait to gift them to my kids. I’m especially excited to gift Farmyard Fun to my 3.5 year old, who loves cooking and has recently grown curious about where food comes from. This book will be a cool way to teach her more about that.

Fun activity book !

The book is better that I imagined. It has fun games and learning activities (i.e., identifying animals and matching them with the food they eat) in addition to fine-motor skills practice. As a child psychologist, I think this is an amazing book for child development. I will definitely be buying more.

I have a very busy toddler who I did not think would enjoy this book, but I was wrong. From the moment he saw it he loves nothing better than sitting down talking and playing with all the animals and finger puppets. Loves putting the food into the pot to make some soup. Just keeps him entertained. Well made and beautiful book .

The perfect busy book!

My toddler is super into farm animals right now, and she adores this book! Each activity is so fun. We can play with this for 30+ minutes (a huge feat in our house!). I also love the pages about food, as many farm books only focus on the animals!
