For the Babies — Boost your baby’s brain development, communication skills, and early vocabulary by going on a Narration Adventure! Talk a walk together (inside or outside) and narrate every step of the way. Focus on naming objects and talking about what makes them special, like the way a butterfly flutters or a spring flower peaks it head through the soil. Indoor things can be wondrous, too. Show your baby the way water droplets slide down the window glass or the swishing sound of the washing machine. You can even talk about what makes your baby special like in Already All the Love!

For the Littles — Teach your child how to go on their first scavenger hunt! Use a blank sheet of paper or the Create Your Own Scavenger Hunt Printable on the Printable tab above. Ask your child what things in or around their home are wonderful—is it the sweet strawberries in the fridge? The birds busy building their spring nests outside? Then go on an adventure just like the characters in All Ears, All Eyes to find all the wonder around you!

For the Bigs — Exploring what’s wonderful about your child and the world around them is all about seeing, exploring, and getting curious. Sometimes it’s even about waiting and wishing and seeing what happens like in It Took Two Wishes. Encourage your child’s budding awareness and their sense of wonder by creating a Wonder Wall! A Wonder Wall is a space on the wall where your child can post their questions, and wonderings for an interactive inquiry-based learning activity. You can even add photos or draw pictures to represent things they want to explore more. Start the conversation with questions like, “How does a dandelion flower turn into a puffball?” or, “Why does music make us want to dance?” Help your child learn how to find their answers using books, observation, or child-safe internet searches.
