My First Brain Quest First Words: Around the Home: A Question-and-Answer Book

My toddler loves this book. One of her favorite parts is finding the mouse on every page.

This is a really nice book for a young kid. I got this for a 1 year old and think it’s maybe a bit early for this but we’re still going through it. There’s a lot of colorful pages with things for them to learn. This book would make a great gift for a child ages 1-3.

This is a great book to engage small children to learn the names of objects around the house. It explores each room of the home and helps children understand objects inside and outside of the house. The colors and the illustrations are very nicely done. I like the questions on the right side of each home scene that helps the children to really observe what is in the pictures.I did find one question on the last page of the book that stood out to me as being a little odd. The illustration shows the family who live in the home standing outside the home and the kids playing outside. The questions on the right side of the book relate to the illustration in some manner, except for the question, "Can you point to your belly?" It just made me wonder where this question came from as it relates to the illustration. I did not deduct any stars for this. I just had to chuckle when I read it.This is a very cute and educational book. I highly recommend this book.

My daughter is 15 months old and has been talking since 12 months. This book is great for teaching her the names of common household items, and she loves looking through the detailed scenes to find each item. She's able to spot the cat or mouse in each picture almost right away. Each page has a detailed illustration of a common household area like the front yard, the kitchen, the garage, etc. Items within the illustration are labeled, an the book provides a sidebar with questions to ask your child, but many of the questions are still a bit beyond my daughter.I usually go through and just talk to my daughter about all of the things in the pictures, even the ones that aren't labeled. There's plenty of extra detail to look at, and there's a little mouse hidden in each scene.The only thing that I'd change would be to remove all of the item names that clutter up the pictures. The illustrations are good enough that the parents shouldn't need these labels to find each item.

My 3 year old loves this book. The pictures are great in color and the book has the perfect amounts of different items and vocabulary words. She also uses it on car rides.
