List of the Best Books for Toddlers
My kids started showing genuine interest in books during their early toddler years (Finally! Yay!), which is also when we started stocking their library. At this point, my kids have an extensive book collection. But even with their large library with over a hundred books (Yes. A hundred.), these good reads still remain some of their favorites. The following is a list of tried-and-true, toddler-approved Best Books for Toddlers. I hope your toddlers love these books as much as mine!

March 3, 2015 at 8:23 amI’ve been looking for a list like this, since my toddler has just begun to enjoy checking books out from the library. Thanks for sharing your favorites. Goodnight Goodnight Construction Site was a huge hit with our little guy. Can’t wait to read some of the ones we haven’t picked up yet! Off to the library….
