Maybe I’ll Sleep in the Bathtub Tonight and Other Funny Bedtime Poems

Lisa — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 12:30:00 +0000

When you say the title of this book (Maybe I’ll Sleep in the Bathtub Tonight and Other Funny Bedtime Poems) to Madison, she giggles. The title of the book alone makes kids want to read this book (which is definitely a good thing!). Maybe I’ll Sleep in the Bathtub Tonight and Other Funny Bedtime Poems is a book of poems about going to bed. If you have a struggle at bedtime, this is a book you should pull out. A family favorite here is “More Night Clothes” – a silly poem about sleepwalking. This book is also illustrated wonderfully and pull the kids into the book. Each page has one or two poems on it, so it is really full. I do have to admit this is for an older child (I’d say 6 and up). My two year old wasn’t all that interested while Madison found a lot of the poems really funny.

If bedtime is a chore in your house, Maybe Ill Sleep in the Bathtub Tonight and Other Funny Bedtime Poems is a book you need to get.

We like potty books at our house. With trying to potty train Will, we definitely will take any help we can get. The great thing about Potty Animals: What To Know When You’ve Gotta Go! is that even potty trained kids get a kick out of this book. The pictures are very bright and pull you into the story. This story is all about going to the bathroom. We learn about Wilbur who doesn’t wash his hands, Wilma who waits too long to go, Arnold who needs to aim better, and Freddie who needs to remember to flush. Whatever potty training issues you are having in your house, this book covers it in a fun way.

If you a potty training at your house, Potty Animals is a must have book!

From the time our kids are little, they are wanting to be in the kitchen with us. eebee’s Mix & Mash is a great book for you for great adventures in your kitchen.

The other cool part is that eebee’s Mix & Mash is actually a baby food cookbook. It has 12 recipes in there for you to make for your kids that they will love.

Over The Rainbow

Lisa — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 22:13:51 +0000

“Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high, there’s a land that I heard of once in a lullaby” . . . everyone knows that song, and there is now a really great book by the same name. Over The Rainbow is a book you can’t help but sing when you are reading it. The illustrations are beyond beautiful. The artwork was painted on linen and scanned (which is very different from other illustrated books created on a computer), and you can tell. The pictures tell the story without the words. You can easily get lost in just the pictures. Each page has a few lines of the song on it. The other really cool part of this book is that it comes with a CD. If for some reason, you don’t remember the song, you can listen to it while reading the book.

This is a great book for anybody in your life (young or old)!
