What it is
The I Like Book is a sort of diary where you are given a short line to write in each day something that you like about your chiild. There are spots for two parents/caregivers to write their own thoughts.
There are also spots to insert pictures and areas for the child to answer questions about their own feelings and thoughts.
Why I love it
We read from the books to the kids every night, as a part of our reading time. I love to see the smile on their faces when I read what we liked about them. They immediately loved their books and carried them around the next day asking for me to read from them.
I also love that years from now the kids will have something we wrote with our own hands and not just typed onto a screen. I don't know why, but I think there's value in that.
Lastly, the book is small enough to keep around the house easily and remember to write in versus trying to put together a big bulky scrapbook.
My final word
You won't regret this purchase! I bought ours at 50% through AP Deals and I've heard other deal sites offer it from time to time. If you spot it make sure to pick up a few. The book is written in a 12 month format so if you keep it up you'll need a new one each year. The book comes in various colors. We got a read and purple one. Oh and don't forget about gifts. Next time I find it on sale I'm picking a couple up for friends and family.
