Our Top Ten Favorite Board Books

Books for Toddlers

They say every stage gets better with babies and it’s true! Eloise is learning so much these days; every day she’s showing us a new trick she’s figured out. She babbles so much I feel like it’s gotta be days before her vocabulary explodes. Perhaps if we read to her enough she will even learn to levitate items like Matilda or get early admittance to Hogwarts… I mean.. I’m still waiting for mine so maybe we could attend together. I am really curious though, when would you pin your babe learning to “talk”? #enchantingeloise • • • • • #runwildmychild #pocket_sweetness #uniteinmotherhood #throughachildseyes #thesearethedays #kids_of_our_world #documentingmotherhood #makeitblissful #thedarlingweekend #awanderfulchildhood #aheadofthecurve #takemyheartdear #humansofjoy #hurrayforplay #babiesdontkeep #kindredmemories #thesugarjar #celebratechildhood #motherhoodunplugged #inspiremothers #snapgrowlove #joyfulmamas #bestofmom #ourwhimsicaldays #parenthood_unveiled #seekinspirecreate #fourteenmonthsold #make_more_magic

I have compiled a list of Eloise’s all time favorite board books and the best board books I’ve found for toddlers thus far. We love each of these and I can basically read them by heart:

Ditty Bird OUR BEST INTERACTIVE CHILDREN’S SONGS BOOK for BABIES. Musical Toddler Book. Board Books for one year old. Educational Toys for 1 year old boy gifts. 1 year old girl gifts.

Ditty Bird Books: These are the new musical books of the future, small buttons help Eloise with her coordination and she loves turning the pages and singing and clapping along with the songs.

What a Wonderful World: The illustrations in this book are amazing! I wish Tim Hopgood had more board books he illustrated for. If you know of any please let me know! We love looking through the pages. I will ask Eloise where the bird is or the monkeys, clouds etc. She keeps getting better at pointing everything out.

Don’t Push the Button: This is just one of two of the Larry books we have and we read them on repeat. I love that the book makes children push the button, shake the books, roar, flap your arms etc. Eloise has memorized the motions and will “read” the book on her own. It’s the sweetest thing. I read this book over and over to her and it’s fun each time!

First 100 Words: This is a no brainer, we bring it on our road trips and if I am showing Eloise something I love to try to pull it up in the books to show her another example so she can make correlations between the two things.


It is effective, reliable, dependable, affordable, http://djpaulkom.tv/video-da-mafia-6ix-x-bone-thugs-n-harmony-on-the-massacre-tour/ buy levitra handy and viable treatment for all kinds of erection problems. What does he have to do with art, you may be wondering?

The medicines block the try for source cialis online australia production of cholesterol by the liver. As far as the usage is concerned, American ginseng can be used in the form of a liquid extract, tea, powder or capsule. generic cialis
Hug Machine: This book really emphasizes hugs. It’s all about a little boy who loves to give hugs. It’s really sweet and has a lot of personality. I hope eventually it will inspire Eloise to give me all the hugs. Perhaps it’s wishful thinking, but a cute story, regardless.

Mrs. Peanuckle’s Alphabet: We have the flower, tree and veggie versions of this book and I feel like I learn a couple things about the various species from these books! Plus the art is beautiful, just look at the cover.

Hop On Pop: Honestly, I don’t know the appeal behind this one other than the fact that Dr. Seuss is clearly a genius. This book ends up in my lap at least once a day. Eloise walks around the house saying “bop bop bop” all day. So here it is on my list. It’s fun to read, Andrew turns it into some rap that now I can’t read it any way other than that. haha.

Baby Loves Science: These books are the best! I love incorporating a little science into our daily play. I hope that I can teach Eloise about these things as she grows up so she views them as fun instead of work. We have Aerospace Engineering, Quarks, Gravity, Thermodynamics, Coding and Quantum Physics. How cute.

Hello World: The illustrations in these are wonderful too. We have the Solar Systems, My Body, and Dinosaurs and I love the little factoids on each page. Eloise has learned to love Dinosaurs as a result as well as all of her body parts.

What are your favorite board books? I love getting recommendations to add to our library from other parents.
