One of my favorite activities to do with young children is read a book, and even infants can get in on the fun if you pick one that truly engages the senses. My three-month-old and I have been loving the classic story
Pat the Bunny. The interactive pages with different tactile experiences (pat the bunny, put a finger in mommy's ring, etc.) are as engaging for my little one as they have been for millions of children since the book's original publishing in 1940. More importantly than the things my baby is learning from the experiences in the book, we are getting time to bond and cuddle together, which is a precious commodity.
Pat the Bunny, along with its sister books
Pat the Cat and
Pat the Puppy, are all available from Amazon. Right now, the site has a special on the
Pat the Bunny gift set that includes the book and a plush bunny for only $11.55, more than 30% off.
