Welcome, Baby! Baby Rhymes for Baby Times by Stephanie Calmenson
This book of poems and rhymes is fun for pre K-Kindergarten students. It is a book filled with poems about babies. It celebrates their daily lives from birth up to toddlerhood. The catchy poems will make you smile, and show babies learning about themselves, their families, and the world around them. From diaper changes to playing horsey, and from splashing in the tub to giving mommy a good morning kiss, the love, happiness, and fun that babies bring to our lives are captured by the poems in this book
This book of poems and rhymes are fun for young readers. It will not only help with fluency and other reading strategies, but it will teach readers about basic poetry. All of the poems in the book rhyme, which is a good thing for children learning to read. It can be helpful when learning lessons about the onset and rime of a word. This book seems to be for "babies" or really young children, but I can see these poems being used in an elementary school. Everyone knows about babies and was a baby at one point. They can relate to the poems in the book. I would include this book in my classroom library because it is a great way to teach beginners poetry to your students. The poems are cute and fun. All will enjoy them.
