get the child involved and knowing the parts to the bus and what going on the bus with the people possible ( )
  Sherritaperry | Aug 15, 2018 |
Very cool idea. This is a book with a familiar song, "The Wheels on the Bus," and it has made it into a read/sing-aloud version. There are illustrations inside that are beautifully and creatively done to keep the child's attention focused while the parent/family member sings out loud. The song is straight forward and the lyrics are written in the book for the parent to follow along as they sing/rhyme out the words. Sweet idea and it is a cool thing for the parent and baby-toddler to do together.

For ages: baby - 3

My daughter loves books with songs in them and she loves to hold this and look at the pages while I sing. It's such a good distraction, I give it to her while I change her diaper. XD ( )
