Practical activity ideas for babies 0-3.

I thought this was a good overview of different activities for you child and why kids in this age range act the way that they do. I think it would be most ideal for a first-time parent, but I still got some good things out of it reading it when my oldest was 3.5 and my son was 3 mos old. The chapters were short and succinct making it easy to read a chapter here and there. Most of the activities and suggestions were practical too.

Although a good portion was dedicated to infants and younger toddlers, it was a good reminder of how important your overall attitude on how you handle problems will ultimately reap positive or negative consequences
