4.0 out of 5 stars Simple & easy to follow, 29 Aug 2006
By May (UK) - See all my reviews
I was shopping around for a simple & easy to follow book to keep up with my baby's development. We ran out of ideas of how to keep the play & learning on-going.

Absolutely loved this book. Gave it to my hubby & he read the whole book & thought the same too.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book., 27 Mar 2009
By D. Almuli "Dinamit" (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Miriam Stoppard's 'Baby's First Skills' is a great book for any new parent. Where so many books focus on the baby care aspect of parenthood, here is finally a book that guides parents on stimulating and playing with their babies to help their development.

It's divided into the different months with a brief description of key developmental milestones and suggested activities. My only (very slight) criticism is that the 'play hour' wheel uses numbers as keys for the different activities which are in a different part of the book, so it can be a little annoying going back and fro. Still, this doesn't take away from the fact that this is a great book. Buy and enjoy!.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for first time parents, 27 Aug 2008
By CS Martin "radiofreejericho" (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I stumbled across this book - and loved it. Very helpful at pointing out what your baby will be doing at the various monthly stages - and very useful ideas about what you can do to entertain/educate/play with your child. I was quite a nervous - and completely untrained - first time parent and found Dr Stoppard's book full of excellent examples of things to do with my son. I ignored the whole 'golden hour' suggestion by the author but still found it by far the most helpful book out there.
