Danny is Done with Diapers (A Potty ABC Board Book)
Rebecca O'Connell



Read this book with Clairene when she was undergoing potty training at 19th month.
Great illustrations too! We read it may times while she was sitting on the potty.
Taught her vocabulary (diapers, toilet, underwear, etc), talked about hygiene (washing hands)
and reinforced learning the alphabet at the same time
since she was already able to recognise most of the letters at that time.



Little Reindeer (Touch and Explore Board Book)
Katie Saunders

Used books like these to expose Clairene to things she would not easily see in real life - snow, reindeer, snowman, log cabins, pine trees. etc . The touch and feel feature increased the fun element.



Spot's Birthday Party (Board Book)
Eric Hill




Clairene enjoys this book partly because of the birthday theme. She read it at the time when she has just learnt to sing the birthday song and to blow out candles on a cake. Excited at the end when we talked about presents received by Spot and when I told her that her sister would give her one when they meet up soon (the time when I was pregnant and preparing her for her sister's arrival).
After a few readings, she could name me all the hidden animals even before we lifted the flaps.
It's amazing to me - didn't expect a 18-month old kid could learn that fast. 



Under the Sea (Usborne Lift and Look Board Book)
Jessica Greenwell


Clairene loves this book and enjoys lifting the flaps to look for different sea creatures.
Taught her new vocabulary such as lion fish, sharks, jellyfish, dolphins, seahorses etc.
