If you know someone who is expecting, chances are you\u2019ll be invited to a (virtual or socially distanced) baby shower sometime soon. When purchasing a gift off the registry just doesn't seem personal enough, consider adding one of these board books to the mix. These titles will help a new mom or dad turn story time into an interactive, sensory experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Lift-the Flap: I Love You So<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

This book<\/a> is all about the snuggles, as you can probably tell by the title. Each lift-the-flap page helps develop motor skills while celebrating the bond between parent and child. There is also no shortage of adorably illustrated baby animals. Bunnies, bear cubs, and foxes \u2026 oh my! <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Touch-And-Feel: Pat-a-Cake Monkey<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s no secret that learning through touch helps a child develop language and motor skills, and gain a better understanding of the world around them. That\u2019s why we love this board book<\/a> that lets infants use their little hands to explore various textures via a playful monkey theme. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Press-for-Sound: Sing-Along Nursery Rhymes<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Consider this book<\/a> an intro to those beloved songs that all babies and toddlers seem to crave on repeat. Each sound button emits an instrumental version of a popular nursery rhyme, while colorful pictures and boldfaced text bring Itsy Bitsy Spider, Wheels on the Bus and more to life. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Mama bear and cub take center stage in this oh-so-sweet board book<\/a>. Shaped die-cuts on each page add an element of texture and fun for babies to grab onto, while rhyming text is sure to evoke all the feels. Warning: first-time moms and dads will want to have the tissue box nearby. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
