This Touch & Learn board book offers toddlers a multisensory introduction to space with fun concepts such as gravity and planetary orbits! Little ones can touch and trace the felt finger trails while learning about our solar system!
Children are invited to become space explorers as they touch and trace colorful felt finger trails to follow a comet across the sky, walk on the moon, orbit the sun, and more!
Colorful sheets of felt, embedded between the die-cut board pages, provide "trails" that kids can touch and feel. The felt sheets also create a cascading effect that is visually appealing and makes turning the pages easy for little hands. In addition to the tactile experience, this book provides items to seek and find on every page!
Touch & Learn books encourage children to be curious and to explore the world around them. Look for the other titles in the Touch & Farm , Touch & Things That Go , and Touch & Ocean !

Touch and Learn Space is a very short young children’s board book all about space.
Each page has a different felt cover to it though if I’m perfectly honest this didn’t really add anything to the book.
Over the five double pages children can find out tiny bits of information about space, including comets, gravity, space travel, etc.
At the bottom of each double page is a list and image of items for the children to find. This is a good way of making the book interactive, though adding things like ‘’satellite’ but not explaining what one is felt a little lacking to me.
Overall, a decent start for very young children to learn a little about space.
