The perfect baby present and self-purchase for just the right moment
in a baby and parent's life.
Introducing Beginning Baby, a new line of novelty board books and gifts
from the Chronicle Children's group. Based on over 30 years of
distinctive, innovative, bestselling, and award-winning children's
publishing, Beginning Baby is the ultimate series for new parents and
their children. We've taken our experience as creative professionals,
moms, dads, aunts, uncles, siblings, and friends to create a line of
books and gifts that we would want to share with the little ones in our
lives. Every Beginning Baby book, toy, or game features simple icons to
denote which developmental milestones it supports, along with the
intended age range. With its distinctive yet accessible art, lovable
characters, and educational concepts, Beginning Baby is designed to make
growing and learning as easy as playing and dreaming--and will become
the must-have gift or self-purchase for every baby's first library.
Because a strong beginning sets the groundwork for a bright start!
Smile, Baby!'s playful text introduces babies to their faces and asks
them to find their nose, ears, and eyes in the embedded mirror.
- DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE: Every book is conceived and written to
address milestones in a baby's life, from fine motor skills to shape
recognition and emotional awareness.
- TEACHES PARTS OF THE FACE AND MOTOR CONTROL: Using the embedded
mirror, parents and babies can find different parts of the face and
touch their noses, pat their cheeks, and blow baby a kiss.
- CUTE CHARACTERS: Evoking Richard Scarry's classic characters but for
much younger readers, these adorable characters--from an artistic llama
to a musical elephant and gardener octopus--teach toddler concepts while
promoting socialization and community.
- BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED FOR DISCERNING EYES: Bright, peppy colors and
patterns make this series of books attractive for both babies and
adults!
- MORE TITLES COMING: Beginning Baby will launch with 3 titles and
publish 2-3 titles per season through 2022.
Perfect for:
- Parents of babies and toddlers
- Grandparents
- Uncles and aunts
- Teachers and educators at daycare and early childhood centers
- Anyone looking for the perfect baby shower gift
