Play & Learn Toddler Activities Book: 200+ Fun Activities for Early Learning

This is a great little book. Bought for my grandkids ages 1 and 3. The book has ideas and activities for both skill levels. Delivery was next day and seller packed it really nicely so it didn’t get damaged!

Please note I received a review copy of this book. Oh my goodness if you need ideas this book is full of them! And they are really, really good! When I had my first child I scoured tons of books for activity ideas, if only I had had "Play & Learn". I'm floored by the number of projects in here (200+) and the fact that they all have a developmental/educational tie-in. I also love the sweet illustrations and the way the book is organized. If you are parent to a toddler or run a preschool program, this book will become your go-to resource for how to keep the kids engaged and having fun while they learn.

I got as a gift for my daughter to use with my grandson. It has a variety of activities to choose from such as indoor and outdoor, art, science and much more. My daughter said she likes the resources to choose from to help select activities to do together.

This book is so amazing. I’m always leery of buying a craft book that says it uses “supplies you already have around the house.” I don’t usually keep empty toilet paper rolls, a pile of old magazines, or buckets of beads around my house. Surprisingly, as I looked through the book to make my shopping list, there were very few things that I didn’t already have. All the projects have only a few supplies needed, that you probably do have or can buy cheaply at the $1 store. They are rated 1-5 on messiness. The 5’s aren’t that messy if you use precautions. On each page it shows you what that project will be helping your child with (fine motor skills, colors, sensory development, counting, etc.). Since you know what your child is learning , you can talk them through each step. Above all, they are all a lot of fun and my 3 year-old granddaughter begs to do them every day. I’m thrilled with this book.

I gave this to a daughter-in-law at Christmas who had it on her wish list to use with her 3 year old. Here is what she said: Oh my goodness, I LOVE it! I have used it serveral times. In fact, we did one just this week. My goal is to incorporate 1-2 a week. (That cotton ball craft Audrey made you was one as well) The only drawback is I’ve found it requires some materials that I don’t readily have on hand. It’s nice because it just helps give me an idea when I’m searching for an activity to do and it’s broken down into separate categories of play/learning. Pretend/explore/create, etc.

I bought this to get some ideas of things to do on the weekend. After reading, most of the activities are beyond the range of our toddler. I would say they need to be AT LEAST 2, if not older to do many of these activities. But great ideas here. Will pull out again in a year.

I just got this book in the mail today. I thumbed through it and see lots of activities that will be fun for my grandson (soon to be 3) to do when he's here with Nana (me). The book is well organized, colorful and yet written to simplify how to do the activities, and uses mostly things that I have or can get inexpensively. One of the first pages I saw was 'Dancing Popcorn Kernels' which I think he will love! There are many activities for holidays-the index will be very helpful in finding them. Thanks Angela!

I I love how the book is organized and that the activities are simple and easy enough for a busy parent or teacher to do with their kids. Most only require supplies that I already have around the house, which is a major bonus! As a parent of two kids who has done many activities with them over the last 4 or so years, I can say that this book is filled with activities that kids will actually find engaging and want to do over and over again. If you are looking for simple ways to engage your kids with learning and fun, this is the book for you!

Je m'attendais à un livre contenant des activités à faire avec les enfants (avec des stickers par exemples), en fait, c'est un livre pour les parents, c'est pour leur donner des idées ...les parents lisent puis appliquent avec leurs enfants

All I find are so basic and not creative activities. I actually expected more of this book.

Brilliant book. Loads of activities and ideas. Tells you how much preparation time you need and gives a messiness rating. My 2 year old loves trying the new activities and is learning at the same time

good layout, easy to find something quick, handy book

Good to have but a lot of repeating themes got perhaps 20 things out if it
