Baby Einstein AlphabooksIt should come as no surprise that I love books (I am second grade teacher). Honestly though, in my case, it's not just that I love them...I am obsessed with books! I love buying Leah books and I really have to practice self-control when I go to a bookstore. I am thrilled that Leah already has favorite books and it warms my heart that she often goes to her room, pulls books off her bookshelf and "reads" them to herself.
Before Leah was even born, two of my co-workers gave me the Baby Einstein Alphabooks. I figured we would enjoy them with our child someday, but truthfully, I never expected for Leah (and me) to love them as much as we do. Leah will sit and listen to us read each and every book. They are alphabet books...so that means she reads through 26 books! Granted, they are short books....each opened page has a picture on one side and the word on the other side. But still, it does take us quite a while to get through every book and often times, we even reread certain ones!
I love these books for their simplicity. The picture side alternates between photographs and illustrations and some of the chosen words are really unique- Zucchini, Violets, Garden, Quail- words that children might not hear daily. There are also many familiar words- apples foot, nose, dog, cat- which children will also enjoying hearing and seeing. Leah especially loves the eyes (she will poke my eyes), hat (she points to her hat), Kiss (she kisses the book) and Dog (she barks).
These books are interactive, engaging for children and sturdy (they are board books). I have no doubt your child will enjoy these books over and over and over again!
