A Guide to Giving Your Child an Emotional Head Start

Understanding those actions–and responding appropriately to them–is the key to giving your child a head start to a healthy and happy future.

Learn how to: •Talk with your child about emotions in order to help him recognize and control his own •Use face-to-face interaction, tone of voice, song, and touch to make your infant feel safe and secure •Start a gratitude journal to help your child appreciate the good things in life •Nurture self-esteem with “try, try again” activities and simple chores •Create a “What are they feeling” deck of cards to help your child understand and practice emotions •Use games and songs to help your child practice self-control •Overcome temper tantrums, aggression, shyness, separation anxiety, and other challenges Whether your child is as easy to raise as a sunflower, as difficult as the prickly holly bush, requires the patience of the delicate orchid, or is as active as the exuberant dandelion, Baby Hearts helps you provide the emotional support that may be the most important gift a parent can give.

Simply put, baby sign language provides a way for parents to communicate with their hearing babies before they can speak. By teaching infants a few basic gestures or signs, parents are able to bridge the gap between the gurgling stage and the time when babies are actually able to talk.

This easy-to-follow book illustrates 150 of the most common and useful signs. Signing with your baby not only results in a happier and less frustrated child but, research shows, one who will speak earlier and have a higher IQ.

High-Contrast Art for Visual Stimulation at Tummy Time

This high-contrast baby book features beautiful black-and-white fine art that is specially designed for a baby's visual development. Plus, the accordion-style format means the book stands upright, making it the perfect tummy time book! Infants have limited capabilities with vision upon birth and respond well to high-contrast images, which is why this black-and-white contrast book is perfect for their young and growing minds. This beautiful accordion-style board book provides developmentally appropriate visual stimuli for your baby’s visual development, while exposing them to life-like imagery that can grow with them and expand their vocabulary. Each animal painting was designed by Tabitha Paige, artist, speech pathologist, and author of the best-selling series Our Little Adventures. This book is meant to be functional for your baby's many different learning needs as well as versatile for any space. The unique accordion-style format is perfect for tummy time, allowing your child to unfold the pages and stare and play with them, either with you or on their own, making it one of the best baby books you can get for your infant. Beware, though: it's not toddler-proof! If tiny hands manage to turn it into a delightful chaos of flash cards, consider it an unintended bonus feature for early learning adventures!
