I Love You All the Time
Reassure children that they are loved and loveable no matter the ups and downs of the day with words of affirmation for kids.
I Love You All the Time speaks to the power of caregivers’ steady love to help children develop confidence, resilience, and emotional agility with words of affirmation for kids.
Parents and teachers want strategies for helping preschoolers manage their emotions. But to effectively teach emotional self-regulation strategies, children first need to know they are safe and loved—all the time. Even when they lose their temper, even when they stay up too late, or lose their shoes, or yell at their friend. The steady love of a caregiver can help children thrive, even when life is challenging.
Written from the perspective of a caring adult speaking to a child, I Love You All the Time strengthens relationships by addressing the common childhood Am I loved all the time? Its charming rhyme, words of affirmation for kids, and heartwarming message make the book perfect for storytime, home, the preschool classroom, and whenever children need a reminder that they’re loved.

Full of love, heart and caring, this is a book to snuggle up with and enjoy.
This is one for kids to be read with those, who love them. It shows various situations...many which don't run very well...and how the kids are still loved. Each one shows that even if kids accidentally do something wrong or misjudge something or make a mess (never with ill intentions) that they are still loved.
The illustrations are bright and bold, and let each scene come across with humor, love, and emotion. Listeners will connect with the events and recognize a few from their own lives. There are enough details to keep readers coming back on their own to explore, as well.
The text flows very smoothly and harmonizes with the illustrations. It encourages and is right for the age group. It makes a great read-aloud and holds the atmosphere fitting to the rest of the book.
At the end, there are notes for caretakers/parents/guardians on dealing with children and under these types of instances. So, this is a book as much for adults as it is for kids. I, personally, just enjoyed the picture book and the love it beams. I received an ARC and enjoyed the warmth.

This is a sweet book to remind kids that no matter what, their families love them. When they play. When they lose the game and when they win. Even when they make messes.
It is told in sweet rhymes and is beautifully illustrated with diverse characters. I loved all the details, especially in the scenes of play. This book is a wonderful way to help reassure children that they are loved no matter what, throughout the ups and downs of life.
I Love You All The Time is a great book to read in February with kids - both for Valentine's Day and Black History Month. It even comes with parenting tips in a letter to caregivers for helping children feel loved and loveable.

Such a sweet book for children to read with their loved ones. The illustrations in this book are so cute, and the message is even better. Reading this book reassures children that they are loved no matter what, even through their ups and downs. I think this is such an important book for parents to read with their kids, especially if it's been a harder day. Something that is super cool is that this is actually a series, "All The Time." There are multiple other books that talk about things we do constantly, such as wonder, feel, and grow.

Every child wants to hear “I love you” and sometimes as parents we get so busy helping them with their basic needs we don’t fill up their spiritual needs as much.
📖 I Love You All the Time is a wonderful story that talks about loving your child in every possible way. Our children sometimes forget that we love them no matter how they are feeling, how they act, or what may be going on in our busy days.
📖 Pick up this sweet story to share and remind your little one that your love has no end! I promise they will never get tired of it

Aun no tengo hijos o sobrinos a los cuales leerles estos libros, pero me nacio la idea de empezar una colección dentro de mi colección para niños, para que algun día pueda heredarle estos libros, lo leí y es hermoso, senti el abrazo de mis papas a distancia y como les hubiera encantado leerlo conmigo <3

I love this book! The illustrations are whimsical and beautiful - and Kris' writing is charming and lovely! It's already changed how I chat with my own kids during tough times and good ones. After any fight, or victory I'm reminding them "I love you all the time," really means all the time.

Constant love and support no matter what is the theme is this sweet book. Deborah Farmer Kris tells a meaningful tale and the illustrations by Jennifer Zivoin make for a great debut of their "All of the Time" series books.
