If you are looking for a plaything that is not too loud, is simple to put away, will captivate a child, and is not frustrating for small hands, try these felt quiet books. After constructing, each book displays six to eight scenes (some with surprise flaps!) that invite children to take the felt pieces out and make a picture. Pieces tuck into a felt pocket on the opposite page when kids aren't too busy experimenting with different scenes. These also help to develop hand-eye coordination. All the figures are made of washable felt for durability. These books have held the attention of children at our home for years! (Please note that some of the pieces are a bit small for young children.) - Melissa
