5.0 out of 5 stars Fun for the whole family!, July 26, 2008

I love the Siblings Busy Book! The many, many activies are all simple to do using materials that are usually on hand. The ideas for how to engage children of different ages (baby through school age) are developmentally appropriate and realistic. These activites do more than keep kids busy; they provide imaginative ways to engage kids of all ages with the world around them while having fun. I got one for home and one for our day care provider, and I know the investment will be more than returned in the hours of fun and learning to be had together.

I love this book! I have frequently used the Toddler Busy Book, but this is even better. It's packed with activities that are appropriate for children of various ages. From the baby to the school-age child, the activities are creative, unique and categorized: Let's pretend, outdoor adventures, team family, rainy day fun, and more. If you have multiple young children, this book is fun for the whole family.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for parents and teachers, July 20, 2008

I absolutely love this book! As a stay-at-home mom and childcare provider, I was truly impressed with the variety and array of activities as well as the books "use-ability." It is separated into several categories including, "music and movement,"learning and exploring," and arts and crafts" to name a few. This book is a great resource for parents and teachers alike.
