Babies are attracted to high-contrast images, faces, and movement—so this finger-wiggle book is perfect. Make rabbit's ear prick up, puppy's tail wag, or turn your finger into a wiggly worm. The text introduces new vocabulary and encourages parents to read playfully with intonation, trumpeting loudly, like an elephant, or wagging the puppy's tail excitedly.
The perfect playtime companion for newborns! Playtime! is a fold-out, high-contrast board book crafted to turn tummy time into a joyful celebration of movement, exploration, and sensory play
Designed with baby development in mind, one side features vibrant high-contrast patterns and saturated colors that captivate little eyes and encourage visual tracking. The reverse showcases adorable baby photographs and an embedded mirror, ideal for sparking smiles and self-recognition.
Parents and caregivers can help babies mimic playful movements—flapping like a bird or stretching like a cat—adding an extra layer of fun and physical engagement. The accordion-style format allows the book to stand upright for hands-free tummy time or fold into cuddly lap-time reading.
Whether your baby is kicking, reaching, or cooing, Playtime! provides a multisensory experience that nurtures growing bodies and minds.
