Play and Learn With Your Baby: Simple Activities with Amazing Benefits (Paperback) - The Baby Club

Are you keen to give your baby the very best start in life and make every moment that you have together count?

Based on The Baby Club, the ground-breaking CBeebies show, Play & Learn With Your Baby is packed with bite-sized activities that you can enjoy with your baby - explore everyday objects, have fun talking, singing, telling stories, then mellowing out.

Discover the psychology and child development theory that underpins every activity, and how you can apply those principles to everything you do with your baby - at nappy time, bath time, in the park, and on the bus.

Bringing discovery, songs and stories to your daily activities with your little one is simple, but transformative for your baby's developing language skills, motor skills, emotional development, and more.

Now everyone is invited to a baby club - anytime, anywhere.
