Happy Baby: Words

My 13 month old has loved this book for months. She is not old enough to understand the language differences, but she loves looking at the photos of babies. I also think the format is the perfect size and texture (solid with a soft cover) for her little hands. Eventually I hope to teach her some Spanish from this book (and think it will be great for that, with a pronunciation guide included) but regardless of the language it is a favorite. I have gone on to buy more Happy Baby books and I think they're all great.

Our copy has been through two children. Both of my kids love the bright and clear pictures. We are teaching my son sign language and this book is great for teaching simple words and signs! A well loved book!

We've been reading this book since she was 3 months old. This was the first book she turned a page in, actually she went back to see the cup she likes, so I encouraged her to "do page" from then on and she could turn pages at 4 months old! She reads this book to me now, she can name everything in it easily. She is now 2 1/2, she also loved the Happy Baby 123, Happy Baby ABC, and Happy Baby Animals. I think she liked these books better than any others as a tiny baby because the pictures in the books looked like things she saw in the world, not just cartoons - real stuff. I think she'll be a reader for life and I think these books gave her a wonderful start!! I give them as baby gifts now!

This has become my 11 mo. old daughter's favorite book as of recent. She loves looking at the babies and kids in the book. THe pictures are so clear and bright. She waves bye-bye to the baby in the coat and hat and the baby in the stroller knowing they are dressed to go some where! She reads it over and over before we go to bed each night. THe last page ends with a baby in his crib - ready to go 'night night' like she is. Makes her want to get into her crib!It's a great book.

This is one of my 13-month-old daughter's two favorite books. She picks it up and gives it to me to read to her again and again, and once we are done reading it she thumbs through it pointing to pictures and asking, in effect, what the name of each thing is. In fact, she sometimes insists on taking this book with her to bed at night. I think that it not only is fun for her, but also has helped her understand the concept of language.
