DK baby touch and feel

With touch and feel patches and sparkly areas to explore, this baby Christmas book makes a wonderful little stocking-stuffer. Just right for sharing with babies and toddlers, inside you find jolly Christmas characters and fun festive things, including a toy snowman with a bumpy carrot nose, a toy elf with a green felt hat, a sparkly Christmas tree, a toy reindeer with bumpy antlers, a velvety Christmas sack filled with presents, and Santa with a soft white beard. Every page has texture or an eye-catching shiny area to expand a baby's senses. Filled with early learning, this book has a simple design (with one main picture per page) that's easy for very young children to follow. There are clear, real-life photos babies and toddlers can focus on, and which help their identification skills, large word labels that build vocabulary and picture-and-word association (helpful for early reading), plus short, read-aloud text with each picture that's great for encouraging little ones to talk, promoting language development. This small baby board book is a good size for little hands to hold. Babies and toddlers will love turning the tough pages themselves, which develops their fine motor skills
