Baby-Toddler–Children use their body to discover their world in this brightly colored board book. They play with their belly buttons, dip their fingers in paint, and see smiley faces everywhere. In addition to playful language, math concepts are included throughout, such as using the body to count and the symmetry of that body. The children featured are of diverse racial backgrounds and are depicted as happy and confident toddlers, navigating their day one step at a time. As night falls, they look up at the moon, become sleepy, and rest up for another day of discovery.
VERDICT A lovely choice to get kids moving.
