0. Read to your baby every day by Rachel Williams
This is the earliest book in my memory. I bought this book from Amazon. I was sitting on the bed reading this book. My father accompanied me and praised me for memorizing all the rhymes in this book.
The joy of happiness still lingers in my heart. This is my earliest memory of reading, and it is also the reason why I will solemnly write this recommended book for children aged 0-2.
"Do infants and young children need to read?" Many parents will ask this question. This may be based on everyone's understanding of "reading". When you think of "reading", you will think of books, learning, knowledge, and other slightly boring content.
The child is learning every moment after birth, absorbing information like a sponge absorbing water. We often see what the baby gets and put it in the mouth. This is how babies and young children feel in front of them through "taste" and "touch".
This object, this is his/her way of learning. "Reading for infants and young children" means that parents and children "together" and read together. With the narration and company of the parents, the reader and the listener share the joy of language.
The child is using his ears just like sucking with his mouth. Absorb language. Feel the mood of Mom and Dad through words, and feel the company of love.
Based on the "reading for infants and parents", I screened various "low-age books" on the market. In the process, it was discovered that many books labeled as "0-2 low-children" are not suitable for young children.
It is not too complicated, and it is not conducive to the reading interaction between the infant and the parent if it is separated from the cognition and life of the infant. Reading is related to the child's initial experience.
The content of some books for infants requires some life experience to understand. Only with a certain life experience can it easily resonate, and reading can arouse interest and have an effect.
According to the growth and development characteristics of infants and young children at different months of age, I roughly sorted the selected books, envisioning the life of a newborn baby in my mind, and entered the world of reading step by step as they grew up.

14. Baby's First-Year Milestones
by Aubrey Hargis
One-sentence recommendation: "Education and play" are both right
The baby is born, eats, drinks, and sleeps enough, what do you do the rest of the time? Of course, it is for fun! But what can you play with a 0-1-year-old baby? How to play it? It is estimated that many novice parents will be worried.
"Baby's First Game Book" is a popular parenting book in Germany, specifically for babies aged 0-1. It selects more than 100 suitable game suggestions from the popular parent-child training courses in Europe, including Prague parent-child courses. , Exercise your baby's sports, emotional, social, language, and cognitive abilities in an all-around way.
The introduction to the game in this book is concise, complete with pictures and text. Even novice parents are very easy to use. The book not only explains the games suitable for babies according to the age of the month but also introduces the categories according to the goals achieved by the games so that parents can exercise in a targeted manner according to the actual situation of their babies. There is also a tutorial on homemade toys in the book. You can make safe and fun toys using common materials at home, so why not do it!
In addition, the concept of "good parents- let it go" and "replace education with instincts" conveyed in this book is also worth learning.
15. Positive Discipline
by Jane Nelsen Ed.D.
One sentence recommendation: "Parenting Bible" has taken the world by storm
"Positive Discipline" is not a book, but a series of books with the core concept of "Positive Discipline". One of the authors, Jane Nelsen, is a Ph.D. in Education, an outstanding psychologist, educator, a California marriage and family practicing psychotherapist, and the founder of the American "Positive Discipline Association".
Have you ever struggled day and night like me: what kind of love should you give your children? Should it be loose freedom or strict restriction? Should we love unconditionally, or should we use both grace and prestige?
Will full attention lead to arrogance, and will unreasonable degrees of freedom limit the development of children? If yes, then, I highly recommend this book to you. It is this book that tells us clearly: "Mother, you should be kind and firm all the time."
The so-called positive discipline is to teach children lovingly, establish a deep and unconditional emotional connection with them, and help them form a healthy and secure sense of attachment. Its focus is not on severe punishment, but on truly teaching children skills and inducing truly healthy behaviors.
The book talks about a lot of positive discipline tools and techniques, such as diverting attention, counting down, providing options, doing instead of talking, etc., that are very effective. In the daily raising of Nicole, these methods really helped me.
16. Playful Parenting
by Lawrence J. Cohen
When I first saw the title of the book, I was even a little careless. I thought it was a book to teach children how to play. I was wondering why I wrote several volumes on this topic. After I really opened it and read it carefully, I felt my own arbitrariness. Play is also a kind of parenting method, which is different from the previous "decent" parenting method.
This book advocates the establishment of a healthy connection with the child through the "play for him" game method so that the child can interact with others. Lead the game, solve problems, and seek satisfaction and self-confidence. In addition, games can help solve children's daily behavioral problems, allowing children to learn skills without stress and fear. "10-year-old Raymond had trouble falling asleep alone, but during the months of play therapy, he never said anything about it.
Once, when we were playing with pillows, I said that I had to hug the pillow to fall asleep because I felt safe because of that. He snatched the pillow from me and I pretended to cry. He liked this game very much." "Another example is Nancy, who goes to kindergarten.
She is not doing well in toilet training, but she never mentions it. So every time we go to the house, I will let my doll pretend to go to the toilet. , But accidentally peered on the pants." There are so many game cases mentioned in the book.
It is fascinating to read, and it is not boring at all. It is a book that can provide ideas and inspire people. Now, in the process of fighting against Nicole every day, every time I am exhausted and at a loss, I have a new magic weapon, and that is the game. Let's learn and use it together, recommended!
17. Dr. Spock's Baby and Child Care
by Benjamin Spock M.D.

20. Listen to the Child

Parenting Book to Cultivate Children's Healthy Personality:
"Listen to the Child" When the child is crying, when the child is afraid when the child loses his temper when the child is angry... what should we do? What can we do to help the child?

It will provide parents with some very practical methods to help them cope with these often difficult moments; it will also provide parents with some basic ideas to help maintain their parents and children. The precious relationship between.
21. Developmental Psychology
by David R. Shaffer
It is not an exaggeration to say that the practicality of this book is like a reference book and textbook in my mind. Its content absolutely kills 99% of the parenting books on the market.
It is highly recommended that every parent has one. It starts from a small fertilized egg and elaborates on all aspects of infant and adolescent physical development, cognitive development, intelligence, language, emotion, self-concept, gender cognition, and social development.
For example, how does heredity affect a child's development level, how does a newborn baby see, hear, and perceive the outside world step by step, what is the basic learning process in infancy, and how to capture the key to children's ability development Period, when is the accelerated period of brain development, and what is the plasticity of the nervous system...and so on, most of the puzzles about children's physical, psychological, cognitive, and social development, you can read this book a clear explanation is found here.
What is particularly praised is that the book quoted a lot of experimental data and research literature, which makes the whole book more scientific and instructive. What’s more, the professionalism of the content does not affect its readability at all.
You will know it when you read it with your hands. The language organization of the whole book is very popular and smooth. Reading the whole book, The Harvest The clear and clear dry goods are not obscure or boring at all.
22. Caring for Your Baby and Young Child
Raising children is like a mystery to novice parents. Should I have a normal delivery or a C-section? Breastfeeding or formula milk? How much milk do I need to feed each time? How to burp? What should I do if the baby is crying? How to deal with neonatal colic? What kind of vaccine should I get? What should I pay attention to when adding complementary foods? How to wean? How should children deal with colds, fevers, and diarrhea? How to do toilet training? …… Such questions, and even more questions that you can’t even think of.
There are systematic, detailed, and accurate answers in this book. Since Nicole was born, I have never joined a parenting group. Not only is it because of a minimalist lifestyle, but more importantly, this book provides solutions to most parenting problems, and it is more scientific, authoritative, and referential.
This classic parenting book was published by the American Academy of Pediatrics and has been revised and updated many times. I still use 100 points of sincerity and strongly recommend it to every novice parent.
23. Twenty Studies That Revolutionized Child Psychology
by Wallace E. Dixon Jr.
Unlike most parenting books on the market, this book does not guide you on "how", it only tells you "what" and "why". This book is very professionally written, and it introduces in detail 20 classic studies in the field of child psychology.
Like the famous rhesus monkey experiment, the marshmallow delayed gratification experiment, Piaget’s four stages of cognitive development, Vygotsky’s "recent development zone", etc., you can find detailed experimental procedures in this book. , Including samples, materials, experimental content, the performance of the experimental group and the control group, and the final conclusion.
I have always believed that conclusions based on empirical research are more referential than parenting viewpoints based on individual experience. Therefore, this book has long been my favorite.
Unlike the previously recommended "Developmental Psychology", this one is more academically researched and requires a little patience to read, but it gives a lot of enlightenment. It's worth seeing.
24. Thirty Million Words
by Dana Suskind
This is a book to help children learn languages. Although there are some ambiguities in the translation, the flaws are not concealed. This is definitely a good book. I promise, you only need to read a few pages and you will fall in love immediately!
The concept of "30 million vocabularies" originated from a study of the influence of early childhood language ability training on final academic performance. The researcher tracked 42 groups of families from different economic classes and recorded the growth of the children from 9 months to 3 years old.
The conclusion showed: "Different families have surprising differences in the number of words used by parents when speaking. In three years, for families with a lack of corpus, the cumulative number of words heard by children is 13 million, while for families with a rich corpus, the cumulative number of words heard by children is 4,500. Million, the difference is as much as 32 million. (does not remove duplicates, contains repeated words)"
Regarding how to speed up the process of children's language learning, the book mentions the very useful 4T rule, among which speech scaffolding, speech expansion, and taking turns are the essence it.
25. Parent Effectiveness Training
by Thomas Gordon
This book is a very well-written classic in parent-child communication. I have read it many times over and over again, and each time I read it, I get a different result. The author Gordon pioneered the principle of problem ownership, that is, whoever's needs are not met, then the problem is attributed to him and needs to be solved by him.
(Note: The party that the problem belongs to here does not refer to the party who did the wrong thing) Based on this, PET mainly discusses solutions to three situations: child ownership, parent ownership, and parent-child conflict. The structure of the book is very clear. I have compiled a framework diagram as follows:
The book contains a large number of classic communication cases. I think these communication skills are not only suitable for parents and children but also can be applied to husbands and wives, colleagues, and friends. They are worthy of careful reading. highly recommended!
