A practical and fun first experiences novelty book for toddlers who are expecting a baby brother or sister, with parent and carer tips. The Big Steps series is designed to help little ones (and their parents) cope with everyday experiences, from potty training in No More Nappies to welcoming a new sibling in We're Having a Baby. Each fun-filled novelty book has flaps and mechanisms on every spread, as well as tips for parents and carers, endorsed by leading Early Years Consultant Dr Amanda Gummer. With delightful illustrations from Marion Cocklico, Big Steps are the perfect books to share and reassure little ones as they experience these milestones. The Big Steps books are a great way of introducing children to different life skills and building their confidence and familiarity with doing them. Watching characters their own age experience different things goes a long way in letting children know that they are normal, healthy and not scary. The children enjoyed pointing to the different pictures, opening flaps and naming objects, which is fantastic for helping to build their vocabulary and prepare them for learning to read. The book is also sturdy enough for enthusiastic hands. Our testers found the little tips at the bottom of the page useful and in one case, they helped to transform a reluctant dresser into someone who is happy to get dressed most mornings!
