My son's favorite book

I have a 2.5 year old boy who cannot get enough of this book. We have read it to him so many times that he knows every word by heart and can read the book himself. Highlights: - The text is beautifully written - The story is simple and easy to follow - Children like to participate by making the various sounds

Hedgehogs Inspire Daily Drumming

Inspired by Harry's enthusiastic drumming and his band's musical merryment, my seventeen-month-old son and I now daily pound out joyous tunes on a collection of old coffee cans and wooden spoons. The repetitive tum-tum-te-tum and diddle-diddle-dum of the hedgehogs' drums moves us to dance, hum, and drum in different ways at every reading. My son loves to match the soothingly rendered animals to their contributed sounds as I ask "Who says 'Pweee', 'chkka chkka', or 'pop pop'?" And what toddler can resist accompanying the resounding BOOM! that ends this tale with his own whack on the can!
