Book Acticity

A baby looks outside the window and sees all sorts of interesting things. The striking black-and-white contrasting spreads are designed specifically for infant eyes and depict everyday objects such as flying ladybugs, zooming cars, and floating clouds.


Age Group 2 months

What’s Happening at this Age

  • Babbling and beginning to imitate sounds
  • Smiling at the sound of familiar voices

You already know that your baby loves you! Your voice makes your baby turn their head toward you and other family members. They may even kick their legs and smile when you talk. Continuing to talk with your dear one will help them build their understanding of the sounds of our language as well as how the words go together. Simple books with one word to a page or song books can help you to have exciting things to talk about. Hold the books near your baby’s face so they can see the pictures as you point to them.

Why did we select this book?

Your baby's eyes are not fully developed yet, and so they see high-contrast things best. The best contrast is a simple black object on a white background or vice versa. We selected this book because it may attract your baby's attention in a way that books with more complicated illustrations will not.

Hold your baby’s attention by holding the book in front of them, or above them if they are on their back. Talk with them about the pictures on the pages. Remember that the sound your infant loves the most is the sound of your voice. The sense of comfort they get from your voice will open their brain to receiving all the images and sounds that come from your reading, helping their brain grow strong.
