Summary

Life just got a little easier for parents of multiple children.The Siblings' Busy Bookprovides parents of multi-age children (3 months to 9 years) with unique and simple ways to entertain their growing family. Based on the idea that families that play together are less likely to bicker, authors Hanson and Kempskie have developed 200 activities that all the kids can enjoy together. Each activity write-up includes ways for babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age kids to join in the fun. As in other Busy Books, the activities range from arts & crafts, seasonal decorating, outdoor adventures, and imagination stretchers to making music, learning together, and rainy-day family fun.
