Play and Learn: Touch and Feel Colors: Easy Learning Fun for the Very Young

My one year old loves this book. It is an anytime of the day favorite.

Even though she does not fall within the age range for this book, I think Touch and Feel Colors has been a great book for our 9-month-old daughter. Our daughter is internationally adopted and we are trying to get her used to hearing the English language. Touch and Feel Colors has large pictures of easily identifiable items in vibrant colors that catch our daughter's attention. While she looks at the pictures, my husband and I can point and repeat different words so that she can start to make the associations. She does not quite understand the "touch and feel" aspect of the book, but I think that will help to keep the experience fresh and engaging as she gets older. Older children would also benefit from the critical thinking opportunities for each color. For example, the page with the color brown asks "how many brown animals can you name?" I think this is a great book that will continue to grow with us and I recommend it as a great introduction to colors.

this book makes the concept of colors crystal clear. my 22mo twin boys LOVE this book. in fact, they read (and fought over) the book so much i had to buy a replacement. going through the pages endlessly, they now know their colors for red, blue, white, orange, etc. and the large built-in handle makes it very portable for little hands.

My son loves to flip through and look at the pictures and feel the different textures. The pages are thick enough for him to grab and flip. The only thing that bothered me about this book is that under the color black they show grapes and I have never heard or seen black grapes only green, purple or white...
