Our love journey: My pregnancy journey (Baby project V

Did you know that babies are learning more in their first 3 years during the rest of their lives? This is a very busy time for them. There are a lot of windows of opportunity where they develop certain behaviours. The best way to stimulate their brain is through play at this age. Of course, toys and books are perfect. But don't rush to the toy store just yet. You can make them for your baby yourself.

I am back with project V! Finally get this cloth book done. Inspiration came from an introduction to a multi-sensory room by a close friend back at hometown.

The pages were created by felt and cotton fabric mostly, with some other materials used in the designs for sensory effects. I inserted pieces of plastic in between some of the pages to give some sound (sensory) effect. This is a sensory book for our baby to explore different textures and materials and it's super easy to make and you probably have many of the supplies you need already at home.

Please do remember though, some of the smaller items that I used here, such as buttons are obviously choking hazards, so, I made sure I sew them tightly or glued them down REALLY well!

Without further ado, let's go through the pages:

I incorporated one ziplock bag to store the puzzle pieces. Baby can learn keeping them in the bag and zip it.

Right: Crinkly (touch) and sound effect
