All new parents are eager to help their baby discover the world around them, and BABY PLAY was designed to help parents engage their infant in activities that will encourage developmental skills. From the first month home through the twelfth, BABY PLAY offers doctor-approved, age-appropriate activities that stimulate discovery, begin communication, and nurture parental bonding. Developed in close consultation with the play experts at Gymboree Play & Music, the book contains an introduction that explains the value of "play with a purpose," information on how babies learn, and tips outlining what a parent can do to help their little on get off to a good start. The book also includes a glossary of key terms in child development, beneficial to any new parent, as well as detailed information on how parents can identify development skills as they emerge in their baby. From stretching exercises to puppet games, BABY PLAY encourages learning during that first critical year of life. Look at what this book offers: ** Includes over 100 activities for babies 0-12 months. |

Written on March 24, 2007 Summary: Great for reaching baby's milestones! This book is great from newborn up to 12 months. I do one of the activities weekly and do it every day with my 4 mo. old son. The reason why I only gave it 4 stars though was many of the activities aren't new, like reading to your baby, mirror, play, tummy talk, and there are others. However, the book shows what activities are meant for what age group, the book explains the developmental focus of each game, and there are many other bits and pieces of advice from experts. In summary I would have rated this book 5 stars if they had put all new activities in it. Written on November 12, 2006 Summary: Good but Basic I agree with a lot of the other reviewers. This book does show you a lot of things that you probably already do or would do with your baby, but it is nice to also see how what you're doing helps their development. It is very basic but definitely a solid book. This book would be helpful to first time parents who haven't spent a lot of time with babies (like me). Written on August 23, 2006 Summary: Good if you need ideas This is a good book if you're struggling with how to play with your infant. I found that a lot of the suggestions were things I was already doing instinctively, having been around children most of my life. It did give me a few new ideas. However, I also feel that there is so much pressure out there to "entertain" your baby or help them reach their "full potential" when really the most important thing is just to love them and care for them. Sometimes all of these structured activities just add more stress when your baby might benefit more if you just relax and do what comes naturally. Still, good book to get some ideas of age-appropriate play.  Written on March 20, 2006 Summary: Good but sloppy. The book is repetitive. Nonetheless I found the book helpful and I still use the soothing techniques suggested. I do like the fact that the book emphasized the need to console the baby BEFORE he/she is in a full lather...something my husband and I disagreed upon until we both read the book.  Written on March 7, 2006 Summary: An absolute must for any new parent We love this book. This is an absolute must for any new parent. The activites are divided into age appropriate sections (0-3 mths, etc) that offer the right balance of activities and expert knowledge. On the days that you had no sleep the night before and you can not possibly think of an activity yourself, you can open the book right up and the big color pictures are self-explainatory. As my daughter grew, the book became a picture book that provided us with endless stories about the pictures. Also, great to leave out for babysitters and grandparents. |
