By far, this is the best touch and feel book I have seen. The textured areas are large, the material is nice and not skimpy like some other ones (The DK series for instance), the books are aesthetically well designed (not too busy), the rhymes are great. I originally bought the DK Baby Touch and Feel series, which was pricey at 5.99 a pop. My now 7 month old baby liked it well enough but the text was all over the place. It just had random words that had no value add to the topic of the books. (Things like "Hooray!" "Stack 'em up!" These are not really conducive to reading skills for toddlers later on. They are just extra sounds and effects that any parent can add on their own.) By contrast, the rhymes in this series is much more educational and even for infants like mine, he will enjoy the rhythmic intonations as I read to him. I was really disappointed in the quality too of the DK series. The fabric and patterns used was cheap, uninteresting, and so small. You'd think that the whole purpose of a touch and feel book is to have a nice large area for little hands to feel. Instead, it became a "fingertip only" type of deal. If you are looking for great quality and lower price, I highly highly recommend this set over the DK Baby Touch and Feel. I ordered this series and the On the Farm set and was blown away by the much better quality and affordable price! Five stars!
I bought these on the advice that they were better than the DK touch and feels. No way! My 1-year-old daughter enjoys the big pictures, but only every other page (so half of the pictures) has a touch and feel area. Also the "touch and feel" parts are a joke on some pages. There are flowers with a tiny bit of glitter and other pics with barely raised edges.I don't think all of the DK books are great but they are certainly better than this set. Buy Touch and Feel Wild Animals and Pat the Bunny instead. You'll be happy.
Our little baby enjoyed these books very much from the day we we got them (when he was 6 months old). Anything that holds his attention for more than 3 minutes at a time should be considered a successful product.My only 2 gripes with the set is that occasionally the same picture is used across books and in some cases, not every page has something for baby to touch & feel.Overall, I would buy them again, you just can't put a price tag on watching your baby explore new textures and images.
Baby loves them and can manipulate them( take them out of case,turn pages) on her own,easy to clean.Not all pics are touch and feel and even those that are, can be a bit underwhelming so of course funny sounds and weird voices are part of reading time. Still it's a good introduction set...
THE. BEST. BOOKS!! My son absolutely loves reading from these and has a huge vocabulary for someone his age that i partly credit to these books. A few reasons why I love them is that they show real life pictures, not cartoons, which I would think makes them more relatable. I love that they're board books so they wont fall apart easily. Lastly, I love the bright colors and pictures in them and so does my son-- these seem to make learning fun. Zero flaws. These books are the best. Started using them around 7 months of age.
I'm very pleased with the quality of these books. The pages are nice and thick, not flimsy cardboard like a lot of other board books we have in our collection. The colors are bright, the "touch and feel" is engaging and the pictures are things that excite little kids. I would recommend this set as the perfect non-toy baby shower or first birthday gift.
The different textures are ONLY present in every other page and NOT on all pages. There are also only 2-3 different textures in all four books. Very disappointing! Even my baby got bored touching the same textures!
I have read these books to my daughter since she was about a month old and they are great! some pages have textures on them and she finds them now (8 months old). I give this set as a baby shower gift.
