Baby Loves the Five Senses Boxed Set (Baby Loves Science)

Bought this for my 2 year old and we cant stop reading them!! The books are so high quality and pictures are beautiful. Saw these books at Science World and knew it was a must have!

Absolutely love this series! We have Loves Quarks and Baby Loves Gravity. And now these. My daughter loves looking at the baby faces and also likes to pause on the pages with objects that we can practice naming. Love how technical topics are broken down into simple illustrations and concepts. Also that concepts from the Baby loves books are repeated ‘everything in the world is made of atoms and molecules.’ Appreciate too that there’s an inclusive tone to the books - for example the sound book includes a page about hearing impaired and cochlear implants and the touch book includes hug as touch and then says it’s ok if you don’t want a hug. An added plus if you get the whole series, is that your kid might also spend minutes pulling the books out of the box, putting them back in. :)

Die Baby Loves Science-Buchreihe klingt auf den ersten Blick spannend – insbesondere für Eltern, die früh Interesse an naturwissenschaftlichen Themen wecken wollen. Die Idee, Konzepte wie Thermodynamik, Programmierung oder Akustik kindgerecht aufzubereiten, wirkt ambitioniert und gut gemeint. In der Praxis ist das Ganze allerdings kaum kindgerecht umsetzbar. Kleinkinder – insbesondere im Alter, in dem Bilderbücher normalerweise genutzt werden – können mit diesen abstrakten Themen nichts anfangen. Inhalte wie „Aerospace Engineering“ oder „Coding“ sind schlicht viel zu komplex. Selbst ältere Vorschulkinder sind mit den Begriffen überfordert, auch wenn sie einzelne Wörter vielleicht wiederholen können. Was bleibt, ist ein nett gemachtes Buch für das gute Gewissen der Eltern, das sich gut im Regal macht, aber keinen echten Mehrwert für das Kind bietet. Ein sympathischer Gag, aber für die kindliche Entwicklung in diesem Alter kaum relevant.

The book collection is well written with pretty illustrations I'm sure my child will love it !

These books are such great quality, packed with actual science, and very inclusive. For example, the sight book mentions that some people can’t see or might need help to see. I also really appreciate that the babies in each of the books are of different genders and ethnicities. The books are fun to read, the images are captivating for babies to look at, and as the parent I actually enjoy reading these because I learn something!
