Count the different colored fish--one, two, three, four--then add them up to make 10! Children can remove the fish as they count, and then easily press them back in. The fish float--in fact, so does the entire book--so they're perfect for bathtime, not to mention bed, travel, or any old time. Also check out Animals, Shapes, Big and Little, or any of the other titles in this series. (Ages 1 to 4) --Emilie Coulter

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun for many ages, March 8, 2000

By 

Miriam Lawrence - See all my reviews

This review is from: Soft Shapes: Counting (Foam Book)

Our 5-month-old son thinks this book is the greatest, so much so that I bought the other three Soft Shapes books too. I like this one best, though; the bright colors are especially well suited to the tropical fish, and you get the most bang for your buck with a total of 10 removable fish, where the other books only have 4 shapes each.

In addition to being able to safely mouth the book and shapes, kids can also bring them into the bathtub, and the foam is light and easy to clean.

I discovered today that our son may continue to enjoy these books even when he's quite a bit older; a friend's 4-year-old son was so excited about the fish that he didn't want to give them back! Our dog is pretty enthusiastic about them, too.

Our 7 month old boy absolutely LOVES this book! The soft shapes fish come out of the book and he really likes holding them and putting them (and everything else!) in his mouth. The book is brightly colored and is great for teaching colors and numbers. A must have for your toddler!

4.0 out of 5 stars Olivia's Mom, March 13, 2003

Happy with the book, although I've realized that some of the fish are a bit too small for little babies who are still jamming everything into their mouths. Olivia will stick things in so far she chokes herself and fishies on page four are in such a shape that they are perfect for sticking down the throat. So, we've put this book on the shelf for now.
