“Look at the happy baby. Can you make a happy face? Find the happy baby!”

One of the best things to do in order to help teach babies how to read, at least to start learning how to express themselves and learn some of the first words includes how to make faces. Their emotions are the best ways for babies to learn at the beginning, and so there is much to learn from Making Faces: A First Book of Emotions.

This bold, beautiful board book, Making Faces: A First Book of Emotions, introduces five essential expressions: happy, sad, angry, surprised, and silly. Each is introduced with a large image of a baby’s face. Readers are asked to mimic the face, then pick it out from a group of other babies. The very last spread includes all of the expressions from the previous pages, and a mirror so readers can watch themselves make any face they please.

Those amazing and beautiful baby faces are available right here in Making Faces: A First Book of Emotions! Take a look… it’s an amazing expression and learning experience for you and the babies combined!
