What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. The book is entirely secular and focuses on early childhood developmental milestones.
Ideal Reader
An infant or young toddler (6 to 18 months) who is beginning to show interest in hiding games or who has started 'testing' the durability of physical objects by throwing or chewing on them.
Parent Prep
No prep is required. The book is designed for spontaneous, tactile interaction. Parents should be prepared to use different voices for the 'Peekaboo!' reveal to maximize engagement. A parent might reach for this after seeing their child constantly drop things from a high chair to see where they go, or if they are frustrated that their child keeps ripping the flaps off traditional 'lift-the-flap' board books.
