How do you get your child away from an electronic device while still challenging their senses and their mind? Educating AMY has created some quiet books for kids. They are easy to carry, lightweight, and come in a variety of topics. They are also designed for different age groups: baby, 1-3, and 3-6.

According to the company, “Experts at the American Academy of Pediatrics and the World Health Organization recommend refraining from screens until babies are 18 months old and limiting screen time to less than an hour until kids are at least five years old.” So how do parents engage their kids without the help of TV or tablets? First, they can read to them, which they should do as a daily routine. And now with these interactive quiet books, children have the additional challenge of doing something with items in the books and engaging many skills: motor skills, problem-solving skills, social skills, and more.

By unplugging, kids get a new experience that engages them in a positive way. These are wonderful to take in the car to keep kids occupied while on the road. Also, they are compact and quiet so taking them to the office or an appointment is a good way to keep your child occupied and engaged while not creating a lot of noise, except the “oohs” and “aahs” and chuckles coming from your child.

Kids learn that if they do not get the soft little pieces back in their correct place, they can try again until they learn where they go. Brain building is a benefit of these books, while also entertaining children at the same time.

They are hand-sewn, sturdy snaps and Velcro, practically indestructible, colorful, filled with plenty of items in each book, and provide great educational and entertaining time for children.

Think of these for birthday gifts (there are the age divisions), baby shower gifts, new baby gifts, and just additional fun for any little child from baby to six years old. The activities build skills and confidence in children so anyone who gives a book can be happy that they are helping a child gain abilities, dexterity, and enjoy learning while they are doing so.

By purchasing a book, you are doing more than simply helping one child gain skills.

From the company:

For every book that we sell we send a girl in rural India to school. We know we can’t end poverty by ourselves, but we know that the girls whom we enable through education can end the cycle for their families and their communities. As more and more girls are enabled, more and more communities will emerge out of poverty. When you buy a Book, we set a portion of the revenue aside to provide education to a girl for a month. However, to ensure a girl’s education is not uncertain each month, we work with our partner Organizations to open schools that house 30 girls for a full year. We will continue to support each school that we open for its life and we commit to opening more and more of such schools.
