Book Reviews of The Toddlers Busy Book: 365 Creative Games and Activities to Keep Your 1 1/2- to 3-Year-Old Busy

Book Review: The busy parents book
Summary: 5 Stars

There are so many ideas here, ranging from the creative to the obvious, from the clean to the never-in-my-house messy, that you will find something in here to entertain your busy toddler or preschooler. There are ideas in here I've already had, ideas that I would never have come up with, and ideas that I could have easily come up with if I weren't so sleep-deprived and preoccupied.
I've been using this book for 2 years now, and now my 3.5-year-old will flip through the pages to look for pictures and find things that she wants to do in her "busy book."
I joke that it should be called the busy parents book, because it keeps me busy now that my daughter requests activities out of it. Also, because it is good for busy parents (aren't we all) because many of the ideas take only minutes to set up for your child and need only things you already have available in your house.

Summary of The Toddlers Busy Book: 365 Creative Games and Activities to Keep Your 1 1/2- to 3-Year-Old Busy

365 fun, creative activities to stimulate your toddler every day of the year.

This book contains 365 activities (one for each day of the year) for one-and-a-half to three-year-olds using things found around the home. It shows parents and day-care providers how to:

  • Prevent boredom during the longest stretches of indoor weather with ideas for indoor play, kitchen activities, and arts and crafts projects.
  • Stimulate a child's natural curiosity with entertaining math, language, and motor-skills activities.
  • Encourage a child's physical, mental, and emotional growth with ideas for fun music, food, water, and outdoor activities.
  • Keep toddlers occupied during long car trips or cross-town errands.
  • The Toddler's Busy Book is written with warmth and sprinkled with humor and insight. It should be required reading for anyone raising or teaching toddlers.
