The Pop Up Books AwardWhat Are The Best Interactive Stories For Toddlers?Pop up books are an absolute joy. I have never met a toddler who doesn't love them. Here is my all-time, ultimate Top 3 of Pop up and similar interactive stories: lift the flap, turn the tab etc. These are books that mine and friends' kids have loved. I defy yours to think otherwise! Runner Up Award Goes To...
...any cheap interactive book you can lay your hands on, like this second-hand copy of Beware Of The Pog, now sadly out of print.When those eager toddler fingers get start handling pop up books and the like, there are bound to be some torn flaps and so on. So it's really important for you to have some used and cheap ones around that won't stress you out when the inevitable rips and tears occur.

Up And Down
by Jo Lodge. This is a simple but clever book with flaps that teaches opposites: big/small, happy/sad, up/down, hot/cold and open/shut.Each double page has a flap page dividing it, and the meaning of each page changes depending on where the flap is. At only 12 pages, this board book is suitable for any younger toddler, but I found that my son continued enjoying it long after his 2nd birthday!
