First 100 Words

This book is excellent for my 16 month old. It holds her attention for more than 10 minutes! She loves pointing to the different pictures and saying the words. It's a great learning tool.

As a first time parent struggling to do all the right things for my baby, I got this book. I've heard that it's important to talk a lot to baby to help with their development. Honestly, sometimes I run out of things to say and I find myself saying the same phrases and singing the same songs to my little girl. I find this book helps add variety. My baby loves the bright photos, especially the pictures of babies and children. I say all the words in the book to her, and describe what we're looking at when we see each item/person. I think this is great for her development - not only is she visually stimulated, but she's also hearing many words that I might not normally speak in everyday conversation. If you're bi-lingual, another option is to say the words in the book in both English, and the second language. I do this in Spanish.

My 11 month old daughter LOVES these books. She has since we got them about two months ago. There are big, bright pictures, and interesting pictures and backgrounds to look at. We talk about all the pictures and make the animal sounds. She loves to turn the pages herself and talks to the pictures of the babies in the book. We could probably spend half an hour each on this and the first 100 animals book. The cardboard pages and binding are sturdy, although I wouldn't let baby use it as a chew toy. I'm getting this with the First 100 Animals for a shower gift next month.

This is a wonderful book, the second one that I have bought. I plan to buy more because I know of five babies born last year!

This is the best picture book I have found. My 1year old daughter is intrigued with the bright initeresting pictures.
