Although today the book market presents products for babies quite widely, far from always its quality meets the needs of parents.

In printed materials for children, often the material is not of the highest quality, distorted. For example, one can meet such “lapses” that you don’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Mom-bee to dad-bumblebee will say:“ I don’t like swimming in the river! ” But an educated person knows that a bumblebee and a bee are completely different types of insects, and such a rhyme can lead the baby astray, give him wrong knowledge about the world around him. To protect their offspring from such “masterpieces”, it is not known how they leak through editing, developing books with their own hands are done by parents or other adults who are interested in raising a baby on their own. Also, many children's print media sin with a variety of material located on one page. Meanwhile, it is difficult for very young children to concentrate when there are too many small drawings in front of their eyes.
Books made of cardboard and paper
To create them, you will need bright pictures that can be cut from magazines, advertising booklets. Many, making developing books with their own hands, draw illustrations for them themselves. You can print on the printer your favorite illustrations in order to use them in an exclusive edition. Drawings from coloring books that can be used as applications or redrawing are also suitable. In this case, the functions of books will expand. Indeed, in addition to learning new things, the baby gets the opportunity to develop the skill of coloring or working in the application technique.
Photo book
DIY books for children can be made in the Publicher program by posting any photos or images on the pages. Creating any developmental books with your own hands, it is important to determine for yourself the educational and cognitive goals that you want to achieve when doing activities with the baby. Therefore, illustrations should be located in some kind of system, equipped with questions and practical developmental games. Best of all, if in one book a selection of pictures of the same subject will be used: "Animals", "Birds", "Pets", "Transport", "Vegetables", "Toys". And it’s great if the publication will use poems, puzzles, stories invented by adults themselves. Of course, provided that this is done in a quality manner.
Homemade books from fabric
For very tiny children, toys are recommended that do not have sharp corners - soft ones. And today, more and more often, books of fabric appear in the hands of babies. Pictures on them are made in the application technique, the sheet itself is equipped with a soft gasket or packing. Such developing books with their own hands for small offspring are made by parents at home, in their free time.
You can even make covers for them, putting plastic bags during the stitching of pages to their front part. This can protect against the premature contamination of the book, do-it-yourself for children sewn.
