Birthday Bash: Boynton Board Books Review

It’s a book. It’s a song. It’s a poem. It’s… FUN! I have loved Sandra Boynton books even before discovering Moo, Baa, La La La! Her writing is clever, upbeat and rythmic. Her drawings silly and delightful! How can you not love her books?

I was sent a passle of Boynton On Board books to check out with my baby. It was a veritable Boynton library happening in our home! From Perfect Piggies singing a song, to the opposites of Oh My Oh My Oh My Dinosaurs, you will love reading these books to your kids.

My favorite is the Belly Button Book. I swear my baby learned where his “Bee-Bo” is because I read him this book so often. When I ask, “Where’s your belly button?” he puts his hand on his stomach. BEE-BO! It’s just so fun to say!! Plus, I have to admit belly buttons are just too cute!

Like most babies, my son loves animals, and since animals are a mainstay of Boynton’s books, he enjoys pointing at all the pages. Good thing piggies are popular because piggies and ducks seem to be the animals he responds to most readily! I think he just likes to hear me say “OINK!” and “QWACK” in my nasally voice!

Boynton has a way with making words bounce – as I read I find myself kind of making up a tune for the words as I go (oh it’s probably painful for anybody but me and my baby who doesn’t know better! But it’s fun!).

And of course, we all know the Birthday Monsters will definitely be visiting our house soon! I just hope like in the book, they send a clean up crew after they leave. Something tells me my life is not a story book!
