365 Baby Care Tips
by Penny Warner
Baby care tips
I am in the throes of preparing for grand motherhood.
Though neither of
my
offspring is having babies as of yet, that hasn't
stopped my maternal,
or
should I say my "grand maternal" urges, from kicking
in. I overheard
two
young teachers in my school talk about putting their
babies on their
backs
to fall asleep. I had always put my babies on their
tummies, but I was
informed that that is a definite "NO-No." I thought
in preparation
for
the future, I should read 365 Baby Care Tips, so I,
too, would be up on
the
newest child care advice.
The book is reader-friendly, using bold headings, and
is also simple, giving to-the-point
advice.
Some ofthe advice comes from the author, others from
parents. A lot of child
rearing is common sense rolled into one neat package,
covering topics
from
diapering to formula, and from development milestones
to traveling with
baby.
It's a book you can read and re-read when you have a
question or
concern.
As a veteran teacher of four-year-olds, I found Ms.
Warner's
suggestions
and advise educationally sound. For instance, everyone
knows it's never
too
early to read to your child, but Ms. Warner goes one
step further and
encourages parents to stimulate the babies' five
senses. Current
educational studies show that this, indeed, is the
prime way to stimulate
brain growth.
365 Baby Care Tips makes a great gift for any new
parent and any new
grandparent as well.
