Two books on the new releases wall caught my eye: Art for Baby and Night, Night Little Pookie.
Art For Baby is a collection if black and white images by top modern artists like Keith Haring, Damien Hirst and Takashi Murakami. The drawings have been selected to enhance baby’s awareness of the world around them. If you are a contemporary art fan and have a new baby, then check out this book! I plan on getting it for my new little one once she pops out.
However, my 22 month old just LOVES Sandra Boynton. We have almost all of her books and I’m really stoked to see that she’s come out with yet another book, Night, Night Little Pookie. Pookie, I’m sure, has something in store for mom and daughter at bedtime – can’t wait to find out what it is.
This is me driving to the bookstore…or ordering from Amazon:

Here’s a shout out to the San Francisco Public Libraries. We just came back from a sing-along for toddlers and the children’s reading room. What fun for a foggy morning! I don’t know about the public libraries around the country, but I think most systems at least try to have some fun activities for kids.
Check out yours! We actually visit our local library a lot – they have tons of puzzles, crayons and paper, and of course lots of books for curious minds (and hands). And it’s free! Just a reminder for the next time you’re stick and home and don’t know what to do with your kid.
