Review Detail

PATTERNS is a simple board book that introduces the concept of matching for babies. The book includes an illustration from around nature along with something man-made and three words about it on each page spread.

What I loved: This board book will work well for infants who love to explore visually. The book includes bright colors that highlight the patterns from nature and things that are man-made (for instance, a thorny branch and a cheese grater). There are a few words on each page that somewhat describe the elements of what they are seeing.

What left me wanting more: I am not sure the patterns were clear on every page, and although they are colorful, the takeaway was likewise not obvious enough for little learners. That being said, children can still enjoy looking even without any lessons.

Final verdict: PATTERNS is a colorful board book for infants that will work best for children who love exploring bright visual images. This would work best as a fun book to look through rather than a learning tool for patterns.
