Hello!

“I have an 8month old & I’m interested in getting a few parenting books. The two sort of books I’m interested in are 1) games & activities for bubs, like activities I can play at home, even fun craft stuff to do with him & 2) discipline books, like for when he’s older, to start teaching him right from wrong. Can any-one suggest any good books they’ve read about these two subjects? Thanks”

  • I was suggested Dr Christopher Green Toddler Book when my first child was born . Great book to read and very funny . Gives you an open mind about children .


  • I wouldn’t bother with parenting books. All kids are different and progress at different levels. What works for some with one book won’t work with another


  • Thriving – Michael Grose
    And anything from Robyn Baker
