Colors of Wine Country

Have you been to wine country? If not, then grab your little one and take an imaginary trip to Napa Valley, California in Colors of the Wine Country, a wonderful board book that teaches children about the colors found throughout the beautiful California wine country. 

Told in a simple and fun style, Colors of the Wine Country, is a comprehensive lesson for toddlers and other children who have not yet learned to speak (such as autistic or other special needs children), that not only teaches children about colors, but also  introduces them to farm equipment, crops and animals.

The book contains bright and  beautiful colors of animated illustrations of many of nature's wonders including crop fields, streams and animals, including a cow and dog. I have no doubt that Colors of the Wine Country  would be a fun and enjoyable read that children will love for its visual appeal, and parents will love for its educational content. It's a win-win!

Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes...

 

Want to take a trip to fun land? Then you must read Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes...by Annie Kubler. In the spirit of the children's song "If you're Happy and You Know it, Clap Your Hands", Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes... is a fun board book that toddlers and adults will both love.

As a supporter of the #WeNeedDiverseBooks campaign, I was impressed by the illustrations of toddlers from different cultures. Not only does the illustrations show babies moving different parts of the body, the illustrations also show various animals - pigs, rabbits and kittens mirroring the baby's actions finding each body part, a cute addition that will cater to the humor of any young child.

It's an excellent book for teaching very young children about the parts of the body in a fun way. It is also great for teaching toddlers coordination skills which can be a challenge for some children with special needs. For adults who know how to read music, the music for the song is featured on the book's back cover.

If you want to introduce your young one to a fun, musical book, you can go wrong with this one!
