Review

Praise for Baby Code!
"This brightly colored board book introduces coding to young kids using items and activities in their every day lives. The young girl in the illustrations performs actions that will be familiar to little readers, while the simple text shows how code helps computers to do the same actions."--Vicki, BabiestoBookworms.com

Praise for the Baby Code! series
"When a child grows to understand coding, it just may be that they have an affinity for it because they read these books as a baby! Delightful visual and read-aloud cues introduce computer language in this 4-book series. Sandra Horning’s tight text creates clear parallels between familiar baby activities and code-driven objects/toys/tools found in baby’s larger world. A fine, baby peek at a complex topic, offering a shared reading experience in graphically appealing, sturdy board books." --Janet Lawler, author of If Kisses Were Colors and Fright School.

"The Baby Code! books celebrate toddlers’ creativity and their first steps toward understanding the technology they will command. Sandra Horning’s text is full of joyful logic! Parents and grandparents will appreciate their inclusion in Baby’s present as well as future. Melissa Crowton’s illustrations are full of “analog” teachables too, such as shapes, numbers, animals, and nature. I love the diverse families!"--Pegi Deitz Shea, author of The Whispering Cloth: A Refugee’s Story

"Sandra is a writing whiz for the youngest readers, choosing the perfect words to not only create a cozy reading experience for adult and child, but to also introduce one of the many daily encounters in a baby’s ever-expanding world."--Dana Meachen Rau, author of Robot, Go Bot!

Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2019

At first glance, this series of board books seems...misplaced. But the genius of these books is how they can bring siblings together. The baby will love the bright colors and simple format. Older kids will click with the content: they'll see how coding is all around us, and how it's an integral part of their lives. And they, in turn, will be able to impart that knowledge on their younger siblings when they're a bit older. The author is very skilled at presenting a complex topic simply and engagingly. A winner for all babies and their big brothers and sisters.

This book shouldn't exist

Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2022

I am a mom and an elementary school teacher. My daughter picked this book at the library and I think it is the worst book I have ever seen. This is a book for parents who want to feel like they are teaching their kid to get ahead but it is just a bunch of nonsense. I can't believe this book got published. As another reviewer said, it is simply a cash grab.

Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2020

The artwork holds my toddlers attention, but the story and code samples are not related or anything useful as code examples for when she's older. "Includes real code," yes, but that code makes no sense.

In an example of how code can help baby count, the line Toy.say("one") doesn't at all help baby to count, it's only showing that a toy can say something. Toys should say other fun things, or a computer should actually count the toys for baby.

There are other coding books for babies and toddlers that are much more helpful in illustrating what code is and what it looks like.

Not a chance. Avoid.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 17, 2020

This book has no actual content or means to explain to a baby/toddler “how” code actually works. It’s absolutely dreadful and disappointing. What I find ridiculous is, I don’t think the author actually does coding because it makes no sense.

Don’t waste your money

Reviewed in France on October 19, 2019

Just another baby product trying to ride the “teach them to code early” cash grab. It’s not interesting enough to make a baby, toddler or child be interested in code because it isn’t a book that hold’s any of those ages’ attention.

I bought Kindle version. It has just about 10 pages of nothing, same as the sample that you see in kindle demo. Nothing else!
