Fun for Baby, Help for mom

We bought this book along with the "Water, water, everywhere" 8mos ago, when our baby was 10mos. She was always trying to stand up and get out of the bathtub. Now she sits in the tub "reading" her book. Then the problem was that she never wanted to get out of the tub, so now we keep the other book in the bench where we dry and dress her. I don't feel the edge is sharp, as other reviewer said, and I do like that the story is very simple. My baby like to point out everything she sees on the pages, and now she "reads" the story by herself (in her own mysterious language). With this books, bath time is now very fun for both of us.

Our Favorite bath book!

I started reading to my daughter while she was bathing at six months and now she ABSOLUTELY LOVES books! I think that is a very healthy and wonderful thing!! I attribute this love of books to the four baby einstein books we have read at bathtime for the past year every single night (we also have water water everywhere, mimi's toes & what floats). My daughter never gets sick of the stories and now that she is 16 mos. she loves to point out the animals on the last page; I ask her where is the duck? Where is the turtle? And she points to it, etc. It has been a wonderful teaching tool for me, and I wholeheartedly recommend all four baby einstein books for bathtime. Mine don't have sharp edges. Especially when they are warm from the bathwater. They're exceptionally well made, too. Used every night for a year and still they look like new! Read to your kids at bathtime - they can't run away or lose intrest - you've got a captive audience! Take advantage of it!

My sons first bath book and still his favorite

My husband and my 9 month old son take their baths each night together in our jacuzzi tub. My son has loved his baths from the very beginning and we were looking for something for him to do in the bathtub. He loves books and reading so we happened to find this one and excitedly purchased it. My son would sit on his daddy's lap while they read this book over and over again in the bathtub.(which gave me time to soap him up and rinse him without him paying me any attention) He even reaches out of the tub to pull it in everytime he bathes. He just really loves looking at the colorful pages, can turn them with ease and listens intently to the story. Also, when he is teething, he bites on the sides of this book which hasn't affected the integrity of the book. We have been putting it in the tub now for about 9 months and it has withstood all that use too. My son enjoys this one so much that we also purchased "Water water everywhere" and "Mimi's Toes".....but I think this one is still the favorite.

Our 6 Month Old's favorite Book

The pictures in this book are great for a younger baby, ours has loved it since she was 5 months (now going on 7 months). She pays attention to it moreso than the other books we read her, and we think it is because of the bright, interesting but still simple illustrations. I like the writing, but my child isn't old enough for me to gauge how it works with her.

another winner

My now 20 month old little boy lives for Agner's bath books. It's amazing how much his vocabulary has improved using these books during bath time. He loves to have them read to him, to point to objects when asked to located them, to look at the pictures as if he was reading the books himself, or to just play with them as a toy. These books are only as good as your creativity on how to share them with your child. Have fun and watch your child learn ... while bathing! I highly recommend all four of the Baby Einstein bath books.
