Second Baby on the Way (Package)

Answering all the questions your child will ask you about the new baby could be difficult at times, so we recommend this encyclopedia of babies. By using a nice, simple language, the book answers questions like “How are babies made?” or “What happens to the baby in these 9 months?”

In this Franklin Classic Storybook, our hero is thrilled to learn he’ll be a big brother in the spring. He can hardly wait for the new baby, but spring seems a long time away. Franklin does everything he can to make spring come, but nothing happens. Even the seed he planted at school doesn’t look like it will ever become a plant. Then, one day, spring finally appears and something very special arrives … something little and green and absolutely wonderful!

Tanya is a happy, energetic girl who becomes super excited when she finds out she is going to be a big sister. She tells everyone the big news and helps out with the house chores. But when her baby brother is here, all he does is cry. And she notices that she doesn’t get the attention she used to. And so, Tanya doesn’t like her baby brother anymore. At times, she wishes she could be a little girl again. Eventually, with Mom and Dad’s empathy, the problems are resolved and Tanya learns that being together with her brother is more fun than being alone.

Already best-selling authors with How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk, Adele Faber and Elaine Mazlish turned their minds to the battle of the siblings. Parents themselves, they were determined to figure out how to help their children get along. The result was Siblings Without Rivalry. This wise, groundbreaking book gives parents the practical tools they need to cope with conflict, encourage cooperation, reduce competition, and make it possible for children to experience the joys of their special relationship. With humor and understanding―much gained from raising their own children―Faber and Mazlish explain how and when to intervene in fights, provide suggestions on how to help children channel their hostility into creative outlets, and demonstrate how to treat children unequally and still be fair. Updated to incorporate fresh thoughts after years of conducting workshops for parents and professionals, this edition also includes a new afterword.

We all know how important it is to prepare a gift for our first born when the second baby comes. To make it easier for you, we’ve prepared a present here for the big sibling.
