Bunnies By The Bay You Are My Baby Board Book

My 18-month-old actually sits still for this one, which says a lot. The board pages are thick enough that she can turn them herself without tearing anything, and the parent-and-baby pairs on each spread keep her pointing and babbling.

The illustrations of the parent and baby animals on each page are what sold me, and my toddler points at the bunny every time we get to that spread. It's a sturdy board book too, so I don't worry about her bending the pages.

My baby grabs for this every single night and the sweet parent-and-child storyline makes it our go-to before bed. The pages are just the right size for tiny hands to help turn, and I love how it captures that magical bond between parent and little one.
