Amazon.com Review
As they approach their second birthday, many children begin to enjoy playing classic baby games such as This Little Piggy, Pat-a-Cake, and Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes. And who better to teach these rhymes and games than the Sesame Street gang? Throughout this big square board book, baby Bert and Ernie, Cookie Monster, and Big Bird help toddlers learn the hand gestures and words to a dozen familiar games. Parents or teachers can guide their charges, using the smaller print under each verse. ("Gently clap baby's hands together. Roll baby's hands, pat them, then trace a large B on baby's front. Point at baby, then at yourself.") The Sesame Beginnings series (Cookie See! Cookie Do!, etc.) is a cute, fun way to help children from birth to 36 months attain important developmental milestones, such as hand-eye coordination and gross motor skills. (18 to 24 months) --Emilie Coulter
From Publishers Weekly
Sesame School Random House launches the Sesame Beginnings series, a line of board books designed to teach pre-literacy skills to babies and toddlers. The books are leveled 1-5 to correspond to different developmental stages, and the first book, Baby Faces by Wendy Cheyette Lewison, illus. by Christopher Moroney, connects the facial expressions of familiar Sesame Street characters with phrases such as "Boo-boo" and "Bye-bye." Peekaboo! I See You!, by the same team, engages youngsters with the familiar game; flaps lift to reveal the names of each character ("Someone is hiding. Do you know who? Peekaboo, Big Bird! I see you!). Cookie See! Cookie Do! by Anna Jane Hays, illus. by Barry Goldberg, uses gatefold spreads to highlight the growing physical competency of two-year-olds ("Elmo says, Reach up high. Stand up tall"). Toddlers learn simple games and songs in Pat-a-Cake and Other First Baby Games and Sing a Song of Sixpence and Other First Songs for Baby, both illus. by Tom Brannon. (May)

Bright pictures, lovely book,

This review is from: Pat-A-Cake and Other First Baby Games (Sesame Street) (Sesame Beginnings) (Board book)
I have been reading this book to my now 1 year old daughter since 4 months of age. She was instantly captivated by bright pictures. Added to that are the collection of rhymes that can be played with the child. When I read out "Five little ducks..." She answers back saying "Quack Quack Quack".

Wonderful book!,
By Janefree (Charlotte, NC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pat-A-Cake and Other First Baby Games (Sesame Street) (Sesame Beginnings) (Board book)
My son has loved the Sesame Beginnings books since he was a few months old. We keep buying the new age range books as he gets older. He still loves the earliest ones and gets so excited whenever we show them to him. I recommend all the Sesame Beginnings books to help teach children to enjoy learning and reading. Pat-A-Cake is a favorite of my 15 month old son!
