Big Outdoors for Little Explorers: Jungle

Big Outdoors for Little Explorers: Jungle is an excellent book for any jungle or animal loving baby/toddler!  This book will help to immerse children into the jungle world; a place most of them have probably never experienced! It's filled with life-like pictures of jungle animals surrounded by plants that are found in the same habitat. This will allow small children to be able to begin to build an understanding of a world that is likely very different from their own.

Each page has a lever for babies to move which makes the animals on the pages move. These all involve moving in different directions, which is a fantastic way to develop early fine motor skills and hand/eye coordination. The names of the animals are in bold which draws attention to them as key words and then there is a sentence to give a little bit of information about the animal such as what it eats or what it enjoys doing.

My baby loves looking at the brightly coloured pictures and sliding the levers to move the animals. His favourite page is the crocodile where he can snap his jaws open and shut!
