- Maisy's Amazing Big Book of Words
My granddaughter has been crazy about Maisy since she was just one year old. She watches the Maisy videos, knows all the characters, and learns the value of friendships while being entertained. The books are simple and colorful, and many of the same friends and favorite things are found in several books which gives her the pleasure of recurring experiences. She is now almost three and is as fond of Maisy as ever.She has the Maisy doll and chooses that in favor of real looking baby dolls. The big book of words gives her visuals with the word by them so she identifies the word with the picture. This will give her a head start in reading. Before purchasing this product, I wanted to know that it was not too advanced for a three year old. If so, she would not have been ready for it now and the thrill is never the same if the book has to be shelved for a later time.I am very pleased with this selection as it brings happiness to a special little girl.
Rating: - Check out This Kaleidoscope of Words!
No child gets bored in this kaleidoscope of colorful objects, animals and people gathered into categories by theme--getting dressed, visiting the farm, making music, or playing on the beach. Each category is introduced with a full-size picture and flap to invite your preschooler into a world bursting with 300 words that are related by theme. Whether your child is at the stage of pointing to hear you label the picture, naming the illustrations or narrating a little sentence, she will delight in this feast of words, all relating to a little one's experience.
As a speech-language specialist at Play on Words, I like to offer tips to build your child's language and pre-literacy skills. Take the time to name the pictures, describe them, "the three swimming ducklings," and talk about how they all belong to a group--things we use on a rainy day, animals in the sea, food in the kitchen, or objects for bath time. Naming the category builds your child's language as she learns to group words by their use or function. Talk about what we do with the items--"We dry off with a towel," or "we wash with soap," or "we float the duck." Talking about the function of objects, helps your child link concepts and builds language skills.

Another fun, colorful Maisy book. This volume is an oversized word primer, filled with about 300 words and illustrations (and a bunch of flaps to open, too!) all in Ms. Cousins' bright, blocky style. The words are organized by theme -- on the farm, at the park, etc. -- and while there's nothing really in the plot department, it's as eyecatching as all Maisy books, and sure to enthrall the littlest readers.

Rating: - Look mummy!
This is one of my 2 year old's favourite books. The charming illustrations of objects are grouped in familiar categories so that toddlers can relate the images to their everyday lives. Not only is this book entertaining, but it helps to broaden a toddler's vocabulary quickly. My child delights in showing me how many pictures he recognises - "look mummy there's a....".
