Tiny Tot's Playful Plot

One tiny tot, peers into a pot and spies something sweet, a yummy treat! And so he plots, to eat the whole lot. But will he get caught?

We are always looking for great interactive board books for toddlers, board books that weave in basic literacy and numeracy in creative ways, with a dash of Indian culture. We found another gem in Tiny Tot's Playful Plot! This board book uses gulab jamuns to get children to count! You count down from five little gulab jaumns to one gulab jamuns. Counting backwards is a great skill but what we love is that this book does so much more. It makes simple yet powerful little connections, with a cause and effect scenario. "Three little gulab jamuns in the pot, Raccoon tasted one and thought sweet like an apricot!" You can use the finger puppets to mimic the action of the tiger or the raccoon eating the gulab jamun or just playing along!

One little gulab jamun in the pot. Elephant picked it up and said what's this dot I spot?
