Summary: Get our of your baby daze and get this book!
Comment: Baby Days is a record of the author's life with her daughter Anna during their first three years together. Barbara Rowley has made a career out of devising great ways to have fun with kids. The terrific thing about this book is that it's organized by type of activity and age. What harried parent hasn't thought, "oh sure, finger painting is wonderful, but what I really need is something to keep her busy while I'm cooking dinner." That's where Baby Days comes in. There are chapters for leisurely morning activities, meal and naptime ideas, and even sections on what to do in the car or on the plane. Each chapter's activities are also grouped by age, so it's easy to find something that will work for you and your child. Add to that the "prep time" and "messiness quotient" listings and you've got a recipe for success! Best of all, many of the activities only require a little energy and imagination or items usually found around the house. There's truly something here for everyone. This book inspired me to set up a reading nook (it's SO much more fun to read in a tent while lounging on pillows!) create a special hideaway and an activity box and put together a craft cupboard, among many other things, big and small. If those long days at home have got you down, it's time to get out of the baby daze and get this book!

Summary: Creativity for Several Years
Comment: Baby Days starts the new parent off with activities for their new baby and continues giving ideas to occupy toddlers. The book offers many creative alternatives to television for those of us who aren't so creative ourselves. Her ideas are simple and easy to do, which is what I most appreciate about it. I have twins so I don't have alot of free time to create fancy playthings and crafts. The author reminds us that children find great delight in the simple things in life, like pretend cooking in the kitchen and helping Mom clean the house. Although not complex, I never would have thought of half this stuff myself! A great buy for new parents as well as a gift for expecting ones.

Summary: Looks good
Comment: Took this book out of the library first and was impressed. Now I have ideas what to do with my 15 month old son when we are home over the Xmas holidays. The messyness factor is a very good idea.
