Great Resource for any Parent
One review was so silly that it made me want to write a review.It's really harsh to describe this book as despicable, Christian propaganda based on 3 optional children's activities out of several hundred activities!All of the themes are clearly listed in the book's description which includes many US holidays (Easter and Christmas seem to be the holidays in question). So it is quite a stretch to claim the author is trying to disguise the activities as Christian propaganda when it is written in the description. She also includes many other fun secular activities for these Christian holidays.Moving on from all that, it's a great resource for activity ideas and categorized in an easy way to help find activities to cover any topic you'd want to teach your toddler.

Christian propaganda, stay away!
Christian religious propaganda disguised as children's activities. Really inappropriate material for a book not labeled as Christian. Nativity scenes, declaration that Jesus is the son of God, making of "resurrection eggs" as an activity to explain the story of the resurrection. Really despicable.

Exactly what I needed!
This is an outstanding book and well worth every penny. The book is so organized and well planned out that it is easy to find exactly what you need. I even appreciated the details such as fonts and characters. You can tell the author wanted this to really be USED!As an elementary educator, I believe these are quality activities that will help keep my 2 year old stimulated and engaged. I love that a lot of them are low-prep and require basic school supplies. My goal was to find something to help me keep my toddler at pace during the summer while he is home with me. I didn’t want him to fall behind before returning to preschool in August.Also, if you don’t want to do the few Christian holiday activities...just don’t. No need to write a terrible review about it. That in no way shaped my opinion about this fantastic resource. 5 stars for sure. I can’t wait to add more to my Best Mom Ideas collection!

Perfect lesson plans!!!
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. I recently purchased this book for a college course I’m taking. All students purchased this book and another book. Let me tell you if you are new to Lesson planning and new to adding in a subject area or not know where to even begin.. This book will be for you.. It clearly explains in detail how each lesson activity will help children, what they will learn and how to approach the child when teaching each activity. There’s so much topics it goes with common core standards as well.. It also has a work sheet In the end of the book (Appendix) with the exact page to use an activity with. They have been a tremendous help. I believe any teacher working from Early Child Education to 3rd grade this will benefit you. I say third grade bc my son who is also Autistic enjoys the activities.. Again it breaks it down so clearly. I have been hearing that the majority of the class and from my other classes that I am taking, have been asking where we purchased our books. If you do get this book also check outrage Ultimate Kindergarten Prep Guide..

Incredible Book/Guide For Toddlers
This book/guide is the most amazing collection of ideas for you and your toddler to enjoy together. After buying several other toddler books and being disappointed we will be purchasing this for all of our friends with toddlers. Thanks again for putting this together for our family.

Parents were Delighted
I bought this book as Christmas gifts for the 3 sets of busy parents of our 3 toddler great granddaughters and one for a friend who has a toddler. The 4 girls are ages 4, 3 and 2. The parents (especially the moms) all expressed genuine delight in the contents. Sometimes you just need to have some ideas and you can on from there with others. Yes, maybe the ideas in the book can be found on Pinterest, as one reviewer noted, but it is convenient to have them all in one place. I do not quite understand the one-star reviews, and harsh objections to a toddler activity guide that has some of the activities based on Christian curriculum. Cannot those activities just be ignored or revised, if they are somehow offensive? Just a suggestion.If this review has been helpful, please check the box below.

Nice but expensive.
This is a nice book, but it shouldn't be $18. It's not like it comes with crayons or any of the stuff that's needed.

Great for Grandmas too
I care for my two year old grandson one day a week, and this gives me loads of ideas to occupy and stretch his mind. It is American so includes activities for the likes of "Presidents' Day" but there is a bit in it for Latin American festivals - I don't feel it pushes Christian festivals particularly (ignore those pages if they are not your thing), but indeed it would be great for someone could add even more with some bits on the likes of Remembrance Day, Burns Night, Chinese New Year, Eid al-Fitr, Yom Kippur, Diwali and the many others that the British multicultural world embraces. I also emailed the author with a question or two and was pleased to get a personal response quickly.

Black and white, text heavy, irritating book.
This book looks and feels cheap. It is black and white with a lot of text where a picture or diagram would really help. The text is repetitive and irritating to read as each activity starts “ask your toddler if he would like to...” Not worth the price I paid.

Not very creative or helpful
I didn’t find this book very helpful. For me it has many uneducated activities involving sweets and questionable models. The quality of the print is very poorly. It looks like a Karen just copied it of google images.

So worth it!
This is so great! I'm sure many of these ideas are online, but it would take forever to find them all. It is super straightforward and helpful. (Also, the review about it being super religious, I'm not sure about that- there are just some holiday activities like Easter and Christmas, that's as religious as it gets.)
