More Description

Part of the Babsy B Board Book series, Whose Shoes? is designed to suit the interests and cognitive development of children ages 2+ (Toddler 2s). With months of repeated practice in putting things into containers and taking them out again, Toddler 2s delight in the discovery of their growing dexterity and accuracy. Socks and shoes, then, take on a special fascination as children this age develop interest and ability in dressing and undressing themselves. Whose Shoes? appeals to children who now spend lots of time each day exploring each new capability and its inherent invitation toward independence. Similarly, this book's story addresses Toddler 2s' increased interest in any and all activities that invite their feet to go places and do things, with or without those shoes and socks. Just as Toddler 2s may dress and undress many times a day, so too do they like other busy activities, such as running and jumping. The bouncy house setting, complete with a clumped pile of shoes outside--and the mystery of whose shoes are whose--captures the interest of two-year-olds who delight in active play. And since 2s also enjoy every opportunity to exercise their new interests and abilities in word sounds that include rhyming sounds, in noticing details, in counting, in matching pairs of objects, and in naming colors of everything around them, the rhyming text of Whose Shoes? invites Toddler 2s to count and color-match the shoes each character finally claims. But mystery prevails when no one claims that ever-present pair of purple shoes! The Babsy B Board Book Series includes eight books, two titles for each age category. Each book has its own catchy tune along with suggested additional book-related, engaging activities--all designed to appeal to the particular developmental milestones of children ages 0-3+. Other books in the Babsy B Board Book Series include: SO BIG!; Where Is Monkey?; I Can! Can You?; Who Chews?; VROOM! Honk-a! BOOM!; Giddy-up! Let's Go!; and I'm 3!
