More fun with books – Baby

Babies love sharing books with you.

Did you know?

Lift the flap books help babies develop eye-hand coordination, dexterity (finger movement and control) and cognitive (memory and thinking) skills.

Usually one to three minutes of book sharing at a time is enough for babies.

Other development

Babies learn through their senses. Babies love books with colourful pictures, different textures (e.g. touch & feel) and noises.

Across the ages

All the activities listed on our “Play Ideas” page can be applied across different age groups. Check out books for toddlers, children and playgroups.

Activities listed under “baby” are suitable for children under 12 months. This age is largely about babies exploring their own bodies and the world around them from the safety of a close relationship with their caregiver.
