Happy Babies is a welcome
addition to the very small number of books that exists on play for babies.
It emphasises extremely well the importance of play right from earliest times,
and positively reinforces our knowledge that babies can be actively involved
in learning through play.

The author
of this work has shown an astonishing insight into where learning begins.

We find that if only we
can get into homes when a baby is very young and teach the mothers how to
play with their new babies the difference is dramatic. Why is there so little
help for mothers who are estranged from their families?

Cruelty to Children
"Happy Babies" is a short, easy-to-understand book devoted to that most important part of a baby's life - the neonatal period - those first days and weeks when parents can do much to encourage the development of early learning pathways, helping the growth of an infant's intellectual and sensory systems.
Happy Babies is a valuable
tool for all parents - a "how to" and "when to" guide about stimulating the
development of a healthy infant to it's full potential".
Dr. Dorothy L. Staples, Paediatrician
