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!

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.

Parents will love reading this book to their children. It is meant to be read out loud and the motions acted out by the children. It has a wonderful rhyming text with good flow which is easy to read and lots of fun for children to act out. The illustrations are nice, but the children are so busy jumping and stomping their feet, they don't really seem them. It includes physical activities as well as learning tools "find something yellow, find something red, rub your tummy, pat your head". I enjoy this alot and my daughter loves me to read it to her.

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.

This book really gets the children going. It helps the shy ones get more involved. My daughter is 3 years old, and sometime shy around other children, but when this book is read, all the kids really have fun.

I received this book free from my local library. What a wonderful book! My daughter, who is only 1, will always grab this book first to read. We love to act out the pages of ryhmes together while I'm reading it to her. She laughs and giggles and is now starting to point things out to me! You will not be disappointed in this book if you purchase it.

What a great book! Gets the kids up and moving, and my almost 3 year old absolutely loves it! I checked it out at the library one day, and decided we needed one for our house. Also purchased one as a gift for a friend.

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.

What I love about Clap Your Hands is that it's INTERACTIVE! As I read it, my grandchildren act out the words. It is so much fun for them and also for me and they get some good exercise to boot! Wonderful!
