Parents, have you had the experience yet where your child’s toys actually teach you something? I actually had that experience when Darah was just an infant, as she had these animal flashcards that had all the great facts on the back of them about each animal. I definitely picked up some knowledge with those!
Now I am be re-schooled about popular pieces of modern art, thanks to AMMO Books and their fantastic Modern Art Memory Game. It’s just what you think it is: the game of memory, but instead of having farm animals or something like that, the tiles have pieces of modern art on them. The set comes with information about each piece of work, so that as your child gets older, you can make the game more difficult by requiring that the person name a fact about the piece before earning the match. It is so fun to have a game in the house that actually look beautiful, even when it is strewn all over the living room!
In addition to checking out this great game, I was also sent two board books. I will tell you, without hesitation, that these are the two most visually stunning board books I have EVER seen (and I’ve seen my fair share!). First, we have Colors by Charley Harper. Page after page is filled with vibrant color and drawings that will certainly catch the eye of babies, toddlers, and really people of all ages. You simply don’t want to put the book down once you pick it up.
Second, we have Counting in theĀ Garden by Emily Hruby and this book is all about growing your own garden, and includes the numbers 1 through 12. It’s another book that draws you in with its beautiful imagery. Both books are WONDERFUL gift options for babies and toddlers. I can confidently say that these books will become instant favorites in any young child’s library.
I was pretty much blown away by the quality of AMMO Books products, and I think you will be, too, if you ever pick up any of their works! You can find an impressive array of products for purchase through the AMMO Books website. While you are there, be sure to pop over to the other categories of books!
