Publisher Description:

This easy-to-read, delightfully illustrated book is organized in a month-by-month format. Each chapter begins with a description of the developmental events and advances in play behavior that are likely to occur during that month. A section on play ideas suggests ways that parents can introduce games and activities that capitalize on their babies' emerging skills. Included are:

  • More than 180 candid photos showing babies, parents, and caregivers at play
  • 400 fun-filled play activities for parent and child to share during daily routines such as mealtime, diapering, bath time, and quiet time
  • A month-by-month overview of a baby's intellectual, emotional, social, and physical development
  • Suggestions for solving everyday problems centering around sleeping, eating, and crying
