At Growing with Science blog, we’re highlighting the new board book Brilliant Baby Does Math by Laura Gehl and illustrated by Jean Claude, part of a new series.
Using a compelling rhyme, Laura Gehl introduces young children to math concepts and vocabulary found in everyday activities.
Math is comparing what’s hotter or colder, longer or shorter…younger or older
The illustrations are cute and contain much to explore. For example, ask young readers to find shapes in each scene. Some of the shapes are subtle, such as hidden in the pattern of a rug. Others are called out in the text.
Overall, Brilliant Baby Does Math isn’t about how to do math, but instead is an age-appropriate introduction to what math does. Investigate a copy today!
