This book was a little more my steez.

u/Holdin_McGroin · 30 pointsr/exmuslim

There's only one book with all the answers, and it's not the Quran.

Well, it helps if you sound out the words. Eevee, for example, sounds like the letters. Eeeeeee-veeeeeee. Might I suggest some starting material....

Well, I'd say that's a Very Hungry Caterpillar.

>I would contend that as an atheist and as an atheist myself...

Reading comprehension is hard. Here's something you might like if you feel like bettering yourself. You might also be interested in trying to be less of an asshole.

I second the library suggestion- they will have so many resources available to you, usually including story times specifically for this age group! It’s a great way to learn practices you can bring home.

I would check out Jbrary - this blog is run by two children’s librarians and they have TONS of resources and book suggestions. They also have a YouTube channel with lots of songs, rhymes and finger plays to work in with literacy development.

For 1-year olds you should look for board books- sturdy cardboard books that your child will easily be able to handle with you.

Some book suggestions:

Where is Green Sheep? By Mem Fox

The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle

Dog’s Colorful Day by Emma Dodd

Dear Zoo by Rod Campbell


There are TONS of books that would be great for this age- those are just some of my favorites. Others you might consider:

-Anything by Donald Crews

-“Spot” books by Eric Hill


-Pete the Cat by James Dean/Eric Litwin (there are board books available specifically for young readers)


-“The Bear” books by Karma Wilson- these aren’t usually available as board books but they are great rhyming stories


-“Maisy” series by Lucy Cousins


I apologize for any formatting issues- posting from mobile. Good luck!

It's chronicled in the Ipsum in messem famelicus Eruca

u/itshissong1 · 2 pointsr/TwoXChromosomes

Yeah, I second the book idea. Not totally unique but I think three to five books for kids that you loved when you were a child or that your child loves are great. That's what I always go with and that's what we used to do when I would go shopping with my mom. My faves that aren't super obvious (i.e. not "Good Night Moon") are Jamberry, Jesse Bear What Will You Wear (that's my name, so, I loved it, obviously), Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day (huge hit for me and later for my sis, which would make sense if you know the plot), Snow Day, and Happy Birthday Moon.

If you want to go absolute classics, these are some of my faves: The Very Hungry Caterpillar, In the Night Kitchen, The Giving Tree, and Harold and the Purple Crayon (Probably my favorite children's book of all time).

Hope that helps!

Edit: formatting

u/browneyedgirl79 · 2 pointsr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

The Very Hungry Caterpillar is always a favorite here.

The Story About Ping is too.

This looks cute for my son.

Thank you for the contest!

u/LeifCarrotson · 2 pointsr/daddit

You may have ruined it by introducing your kid to the version with the button (and without removing the batteries first), but it is popular and commonly available in a version that does not have that button.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar https://www.amazon.com/dp/0399226907/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_brggAbQY3JERW

What the normal version does have is a feature where the pages have a hole in each of the fruits, and where the pages grow in width as the quantity progresses, succeeded by a two-page spread showing the climactic peak of gluttony. And no buttons.

u/CryptidGrimnoir · 2 pointsr/suggestmeabook

I'd recommend the works of Eric Carle

Brown Bear, Brown Bear What Do You See? is a classic, with all the amazing animals.

Can't go wrong with The Very Hungry Caterpillar either.

A House for Hermit Crab will always be my favorite. A hermit crab dislikes his shell for being too plain, and seeks to decorate it with all sorts of undersea life.

I thought this may help my fellow new parenters out there. If you're anything like me, you scoured the internet checking off every "must-have" baby items list before your LO was born, but I still ended up having Amazon deliver things about every other day for the first couple months.

As a disclaimer, I'm not saying these are MUST HAVE items. I just went through my Amazon purchases and I'm writing down some things that I purchased in those 3 AM wee hour Amazon shopping sprees.

Here's a compilation of everything that I felt I missed in my preparation for my baby girl:

  • An electric nail file. I was terrified to cut her nails myself. This is a safe and easy alternative.
  • A Swaddle UP. This allows her hands to be by her face, which she preferred her first month or two.
  • Friedababy MediFrida. My baby had a rough go of reflux and was diagnosed with Ranitidine pretty quickly. This helped us give her doses with no fuss!

  • Comfy shorts for me. I was unprepared for my post C-Section body and clothing options.

  • Gripe Water / Colic Drops. My reflux baby had some rouuuuugh nights. These helped? Maybe? Witching hour SUCKS.
  • A bigger swaddle that ZIPS. Screw trying to unvelcro my child out of her swaddle quietly at 2 AM.
  • A mirror to help with tummy time. She still hates tummy time. But she does like looking at herself for a while. So I count that as a win.
  • MORE. BOOKS. you don't have enough. I promise. After the 15th time of reading "The Rainbow Fish" you'll appreciate a change of pace. I personally recommend, "The Wonky Donkey."
  • Trial and error pacis. Your kid will have a preference and you'll just have to figure out which. Once you figure it out, buy extras.

  • Bibs / ABSORBENT Burp Cloths. Again... You don't have enough. And the little tiny rags that Gerber tries to sell at Target will not do the trick. Get some THICK in your burp cloth regimen.

    ---

    I hope this helps! Let me know if there's anything you would add to the list.

Phew just got from a long business trip, opened my laptop, saw the red icon, and ow yeah, I remembered I was arguing with this psychotic bitch on the internet.

Anyway, okay let's continue.

> What is the solution then? You're being awfully cryptic and I suspect that's because you don't actually know.

I don't know if you actually read my comment or actually comprehend English, but I did give a solution, so stop being so fucking obtuse.

Here I'll write it again, the solution is to be ASSERTIVE if somebody harassed you or abused in any way stop being a pussy and stand up for yourself, I gave you two extreme examples; you can just say no, or you can quit and start your own company.

(God, I doubt that you'll understand this) Historically, women were regarded as equal when they had started proven that they were independent, that they have their own strength, that their existence does matter.

Examples;

Jane Goodall, she fought for the well-being of Chimpanzee in a dilapidated country in Tanzania, where women were treated far worse than Indonesia or any other part of the world.

She is a beautiful woman and was harassed not just for her looks but her intellectual as well, yet she was undeterred and independent.

When the poachers, massacred the animals under her sanctuary, she didn't cry or posted an angry letter or ranted about sexism, these poachers were notoriously vile and wouldn't think twice in murdering their opponent, but she went straight to poachers and began lambasting them in front of their faces, this is why people respected her.

Malala Yousafzai, she was shot in the head, when the Taliban entered her bus, he asked "Which one of you is Malala? Speak up, otherwise, I will shoot you all" and she bravely stood up, but did that stop her? Did she complain about sexism? No! She never stops struggling, and despite everything that she did, there are still cynics that criticized her.

Marsinah, a female Indonesia activist, was raped by an iron pole, yes, they actually stick a pole inside her vagina, because she was defending the workers' right.

Bill Burr was interviewed once and asked was the reason why there aren't as many female comedians out there because we're living in an unjust society, where women were considered as subspecies?

His answer, fuck that, everybody eats shits out here, do you think male comedians became successful because they had a penis hanging out of their crotch instead of a vagina?

Colored people went through the same struggle, and yet we still see white supremacist, extreme alt-right, it's a perpetual state of tribulations. If you wanted to be valued you must act even though the entire planet is against you, and this is true for everybody, male or female.

> This is just name-calling. Personal attack. More name calling. Lol more personal attack. Lol wow sexist much? This is just more name calling and baseless personal attack, only directed to a whole gender Lol exactly it wasn't an argument, just more name calling and personal attack.

You're just mad that you couldn't come up with a cogent riposte.

You were the one who initiated the condescending comment, and then when I descended to your level you demanded that I will argue with you respectfully? Fuck no!

The first "Wut" comment, I knew you were just a psychotic and moronic cunt.

> Context. It's important. Try and pay attention to it one of these days.

AGAIN FUCKING READ MY COMMENT, I even quoted her original comment so she knows which context I was replying to.

> Not that it's any of your business but since you brought it up, I actually run a business making 5 USD figures a month.

Hah! doubt it, somebody who scours the internet just to argue about trivial sexism would be making 5 USD a month, unless if your dad helps you, or if you're a prostitute, do you suck old man's dick so you can buy a bag, cunt? Did your mom teach you how to do it? hahaha.

Hey, could you lick my sphincter? I'll trade you a candy for it.

> So you're saying attractiveness matters in more professions that flight attendant

Nope, I didn't say that and learn English, your grammar gave me cancer.

> So you're saying attractiveness should increase how well someone does her job. Then it should show up on the excel sheets, yes? They should close more deals etc, so then why not just judge that using more measurable metrics? There are stupid attractive people, too. How do you know they perform better if you don't measure their performance?

Again context, read her original post, read my comments and connect the dots.

> Here's how to run a successful business: measure, collect data, interpret data, make improvements based on the data, profit, repeat. It's 2017. The people who know how to properly use data make bank.

Context. It's important. Try and pay attention to it one of these days. The boss was trying to gain new business and based on the data, or his research he found out that his clients like boobs, and there's a probability for him to gain that said business if he were to please their client.

> There's a reason why business students spend a ton of time learning about performance metrics in class.

Most successful businessmen became great because they were persistent, committed, disciplined, knows how to manipulate the market, and actually never gotten any degree.

Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Page, Sergey Brin, unanimously said that degree is not important, they all have faced self-doubts in their lives.

Steve Jobs, never follow what the market dictates, he had created his own innovation based on his belief and intuition. Read his book, ow, well, learn English first, because the words are complicated.

Here start with this book, https://www.amazon.com/Very-Hungry-Caterpillar-Eric-Carle/dp/0399226907

> So because there are extreme feminists fighting stupid battles in Australia, that means all the things feminism strives for everywhere else, including in Indonesia, is ridiculous? If not, I don't see how that article is relevant to this thread.

No, I didn't say that. I even said that women in Indonesia were historically more respected than the western counterpart, I was mocking her statement.

AGAIN, OP problem was something that could've had been solved if she were more assertive, douchebags are everywhere, although her boss might not actually one, and she is just a large baby.

Her insecurities made her irrational and started blaming others aspects such as feminism, instead of facing her own fear, which I think is ridiculous, just like the extreme feminism in Australia or everywhere, their thinking was based on female insecurities rather than rational thinking.

TL;DR; Again stop being a cunt, stop eating MSG, go back to elementary school again, when somebody make a comment don't reply them with a condescending comment like you know everything, learn proper English or just use Bahasa because I can speak that too, and come back to me when .. mmm... maybe 50 years from now? once you learned what diction is, segue, cognitive dissonance, logical fallacies, and real history about women's suffrage, ow, maybe just basic vocabularies, okay bitch?

Ah, the old 'ask a question and pretend they didnt answer it' routine. I got it. (I'm not gonna fuck around playing that game. You expected me to say something hypocritical and I didn't, get over it.)


Hey man, if you're really facing that much of a problem trudging through that daunting wall of text, how about you stay off reddit a little until you get your reading level up. Here's something that might be more your speed.

Bye.

Provide some age context.

If you are talking little kids, this, to my way of thinking, is the ultimate rockstar of kids books.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar!

Pretty much anything by Robert Munsch, especially The Paper Bag Princess, and Mortimer

u/[deleted] · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

I love this contest. I absolutely love reading with my children. They are 7 and 4 and they are such little bookworms! Reading with children is one of the most important things you can do as a parent (or an educator)!

That being said, I have a ton of books I want to recommend to you. My kids favorites thus far have been:

  • Anything by Shel Silverstein, particularly The Giving Tree which is an actual story, or Where The Sidewalk Ends which is a collection of child-friendly poems that are sweet, silly, funny, cute, etc.

  • Anything by Mo Willems, particularly the Pigeon and Duckling series. Our favorite was The Duckling Gets A Cookie!?. It's hilarious and adorable, and very fun to read! I like to put on voices for the duckling and the pigeon. The kids get a kick out of it!

  • The Very Hungry Caterpillar. This one was my daughter's favorite from the time she was 2 til she was 4! She has it memorized now.

  • Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? by Eric Carle (author of Hungry Caterpillar as well).

  • Love You Forever is a wonderful bedtime story.

  • Madeline is a classic, and for a good reason! :)

    I have lots more but I'd be here all day if I don't stop myself now.

    If I win, I would love the second book in the Amulet series for my 7 year old. She is really into graphic novels right now and I just bought her the first one the other day, and she has already finished it. She really wants the second one! :)

    Green eggs and ham.

    Edit: I'm going to stick around and get suggestions for my own kids, as well :P This is such a great contest!
