Flap books – exploring hidden pictures at storytime

As your baby has grown to understand that things and people can’t actually see at a given moment, they are learning to anticipate what is going to happen next, based on experience.  

Read lift the flap books with your baby, and enjoy your baby’s excitement, by taking your time, using different voices and being really thrilled when you discover together what is under the flap. Your baby will quickly learn what is behind each flap, and will not tire of this time you spend together. Dear Zoo (Rod Campbell) and Where’s Spot (Eric Hill) are great favourites.
