Little Bush Babies

Photographic books are an important resource in a baby's reading development. Unlike illustrated books where the imagination is required to process the pictures, photographs are from the familiar world of the everyday and are more easy for a child of around 6 months to focus on and identify with. Both illustrated and photographic books are important, but each can develop different skills; in photographic books - ideas of recognition, familiarity, and an understanding about the world around the baby begins to develop. Smart Babies is a great new series of photographic board books that will help in developing these visual skills. All four books in the series are focused on the day-to-day routines of babies and toddlers, told visually through photos of baby animals. In Mummy's Little Bush Babies the bond between a mother and her baby is explored, Mummy's Little Zoo Babies is about the developing abilities, personality and features of a baby and Little Bush Babies takes the reader through the day in the life of a baby - waking up in the morning through to bed time in the evening. Finally in Mummy's Little Farm Babies the simple text and images focus on friendship. We see how a baby learns to relate to the world around him or her. A great series for growing Smart Babies!

Age Guide: 6 months to 3. But don't be afraid to read these books to children as old as 5! It's okay for them to be reminded about socialising in the world around them, daily routines and being loved by their mums!
