Wiggle and Move (Baby Gym)

Touch is a baby's first language...Designed to stimulate the senses, and based on research into the benefits of baby exercise and massage, these books encourage interaction between parent and baby. Devoting time to special activities with your baby plays a crucial part in the bonding process. Singing together promotes language development, and encouraging physical movement at an early age aids muscle development, hand-eye coordination and motor skills. Baby Gym series " ...perfect for babies in every way ... would make a wonderful baby shower gift for expectant parents or are a perfect gift to give to parents of newborns. Books that encourage parents to share language, rhyme, song and touch with their little ones are the best gift possible. ... They also would be wonderful additions to public library collections needing more good examples of books for the youngest patrons, and could also be used in baby storytimes, with a librarian modeling how to perform the rhymes." --Sue McLeaf Nespeca Early Literacy/Children's Literature Specialist 20110401 "The colorful illustrations and interactive rhymes encourage "hands-on" reading."
