Snuggle Puppy!: A Little Love Song

Little Green Frog

P Is for Pterodactyl: The Worst Alphabet Book Ever

OOO, Snuggle Puppy of mine! Everything about you is especially fine. I love what you are. I love what you do. Fuzzy little Snuggle Puppy, I love you.

Follow the Little Green Frog as he introduces your baby or toddler to his friends by the pond including ducks, fish, turtles. Simple sentences reinforce future language structure.

Let's get real―the English language is bizarre. A might be for apple, but it's also for aisle and aeons. Why does the word "gnat" start with a G but the word "knot" doesn't start with an N?

Kids can go on a visual tour of the 118 chemical elements of the periodic table, from argon to zinc, in this one awesome volume packed with incredible images and fascinating facts.

A Little Seed

A little seed for me to sow

A little seed to make it grow

A little hole, a little pat,

A little wish, and that is that.

 

A little sun,

A little shower

A little while

And then a flower!

Peeping Pancake Breakfast

We made this fun Peeping Pancake Breakfast a few weeks ago and it’s SO easy to make! We poured our pancake mix in a heated pan into an egg shape. We cut around the edges with kitchen scissors to clean it up a bit. Cut it in half and make a zig zag pattern. Place the bottom half on the plate. Make some scrambled eggs and place on top of the pancake for the chicks head. Place the top of the pancake egg on the plate. We used 2 chocolate chips for the eyes and a small piece of a orange for the face.
