The Best Books for Toddlers

and mommy tips to creating at home story time fun

Its best to let your toddler chose some fun books for herself. She will have more interest in the books when its time to read them. Understand that she is picking a book based on the cover so don't be confused if she loses interest after page 2. 

The Very Hungry Caterpillar

When reading this fun book for toddler, try to help her imagine a tiny, fuzzy caterpillar and how full his tummy must be after eating all that food! This book always makes us hungry so we snack along with the caterpillar. Your toddler will begin to associate snack time to this book.

The Happy Egg

Toddlers are so very curious. Thats what makes this a fun book for toddler. Help bring these pages to life with peeps and other chirping bird sounds. 

Yummy Yucky

3. Yummy Yucky

"Eww baby, that does not belong in your mouth" may be easier to just say "yucky". At least its easier for her to remember and associate with. Toddlers put everything in their mouths. Besides teething, its another way they explore found items. While reading this opposites book, use your voice to express the differences.

Corduroy

4. Corduroy

Toddlers love finding things. After reading this book, I like to double up on the learning with a fun game of hide and seek. Instead of mommy or baby hiding, we hide her toys and find them together. I suggest hiding her favorite toys in one room. That way, she is more interested to find them.

The Family Book

5. The Family Book

I have to say, this book does a terrific job of illustrating the differences in families. Your toddler looks up to you so however you feel about this subject will reflect in how open minded and accepting of changes and differences in her world. Remember, its not what you say around your child that makes the impact; its what you do.
