Last week I bought Imogen the book and CD The Night Before Christmasso we can read about the journey of St Nicholas on Christmas Eve in the weeks up to Christmas. It’s a magical story and this book has the most beautiful illustrations.

The Night Before Christmasis written by Clement C. Moore with delightful illustrations by Eric Puybaret of a family on the night before Christmas with St Nicholas, his elves, fairies, sack of presents, sleigh and Reindeer.

I thoroughly recommend this book if you’re looking for a lovely story to read to your children in the weeks up to Christmas that tells the tale of St Nicholas delivering presents. The Night Before Christmascomes with a three song CD that tells the story word by word to different music. And yes, we have been dancing to this each day!

The Best Classical Baby Music

| January 18, 2012

One of the best classical baby music CDs is Classics for Babiesand we were fortunately given this double CD as a gift for our newborn. It has been played time and time again!

It delivers calm and soothing music that engages your baby. And the best thing about this music? It really works!

During those relentless early nights when baby was up we’d play the soothing music and she would be lulled back into sleep. It also worked on myself and my husband as parents, helping us to relax and enjoy the evening rather than feeling frazzled and fraught!

Our baby also loves listening to the music when in her baby bouncer whilst she kicks her feet and waves her arms.

Classics For Babies is designed to be used as part of your baby’s daily routine, helping to give your baby the best start in life by exposing them to classical music to aid brain development.

I highly recommend Classics for Babiesfor yourself as parents or as a gift for new parents who may need to claim back some of those many sleepless nights.
