We have lots of fun with this book in my house. My kids like the fun instructions and I like that it's a long activity rhyme that helps dissipate some of their (usually boundless) energy. Great for rainy days, too, when a run through the park isn't an option. Author offers fun instructions like "Clap your hands, Stomp your feet, turn around, and take a seat" Goes on for quite some time, with pictures of animals and kids following the directions in case you're not exactly sure what she means. Long enough to tire me out! Highly recommended for energetic kids!

Format:Board book
This is one of those books designed for the fidgety story-time goer.
It's full of instructions - clap your hands, tell me your age, I'll tickle you if you tickle me, find something red, that sort of thing.
Great fun for kids to get to move around instead of sitting through a story, this might be a good way to end storytime!
But, because of those good points, board book format might not be the best way to go. The pictures are too small for moving around - you have to sit close to really see them - and some of the instructions are really too hard for the younger rip-up-books crowd anyway. You might be better off waiting a year or two and getting a normal edition instead.

This is a really fun book! We bought this for my daughter when she was about 1 1/2 yrs. old and it became her absolute favorite! She actually got one as a gift and the pages became ripped and warped so I ordered her the little 'travel size' as I call it, with the hard pages and we took it everywhere. It's just a neat book with lots of actions your little one can do. Highly recommend.

On the floor storytime!!!
This is an "on the floor, active, story time" book. Not for bed time - great to take to the park or the beach - or just a blanket on the living room floor. Read more

Great fun book
This book is great especially for ages 3 to 6. Be careful not to read right before bedtime as kids will get a bit worked up - lot's of movement/dancing involved.
