Children’s Book Review: Baby Animal Mazes by Susann Hoffmann

BABY ANIMAL MAZES
Ready for Mazes

This interactive board book offers a fun way for toddlers to use new skills such as problem-solving, planning and strategy, and logical reasoning. On each page are openings for a round disc that kids can insert into the opening, choosing the best maze pattern for the animal to work through the maze. The child will need to decide if a curved road, a straight road, or multiple roads are needed to keep the animal moving through the maze.

The board book includes thick pages, and the round discs fit easily into the empty circles. The illustrations of a baby duck trying to get to its family or a baby bear on the path to some honey are quite adorable and will keep the kids interested in reading and interacting on the pages.

Because mazes integrate so many skills, this interactive board book offers ways to support your toddler’s learning and development, as well as offers an option for quiet-time play.
