Mel
Loves her plant book
“Violet loves her plant book! It’s got all the things she loves in a story – plants, dogs, bees and fun rhyming.”
Such a fantastic book! It was such a great book to assist in the transition to big brother and to help him understand what was going on better in language he could understand. My son loves me reading this to him each night before bed. This will likely be my baby shower gift from now on!!
My Mum Built a Baby by Courtney Birch is a beautiful board book for families preparing a big brother or sister for a new little one joining the family.
Counting the months of pregnancy with blocks creates a meaningful opportunity to open up conversations about what’s happening as baby grows — and what life might look like once those extra little pitter-patters arrive. I especially love how it helps older siblings understand that baby may need to be in Mum’s arms for a little while before they’re big enough to play together.
It’s a thoughtful and comforting read that supports connection, understanding and excitement during a time of change — a lovely way to prepare little hearts for a growing family.🩷🩵
I was gifted this beautiful book from a friend and have read it sooo many times with my daughter.
One day we were just talking about babies and my daughter said to me that babies take NINE months to grow in the mummies tummy. I asked her “how on earth do you know that?!” she replied “from my baby book” and proceeded to go and get it to show me 😭
My kids love reading this book. It makes them so excited to meet their little sister! They particularly love counting along with me. Definitely recommend. Perfect gift for the growing family.
So thrilled to hear this! Thanks for sharing with me x
A fantastic book for anyone expecting a baby, recently had a baby or just love a great book! It was the perfect book to read with our older two children when their little sister arrived ❤️
