FLIP CARDS • Look, Baby! Flip-a-face Cards by SAMi
(Chronicle Books, $13)
With their rounded edges, these sturdy flip cards are safe and easy for infants to grasp. The charming and graphic images of baby animals come in pairs, one in black and white (the first type of pattern babes can see) and the other in colour, and include multiple suggestions for game play. Part of an entire line designed to stimulate and develop your tot’s sight recognition early on. —SP
“Pieter giggles when I hold the different cards up to my face and make animal sounds.”
