Teeth Are Not for Biting (Board Book) (Best Behavior Series) Review
User Submitted Teeth Are Not for Biting (Board Book) (Best Behavior Series) ReviewsOctober 24, 2008 Coincidence? My daughter is 2 years old and had a problem with biting other children while at daycare. We tried "reasoning" with her - but it didn't seem to help. So, we decided to try buying a book hoping that perhaps it might help the situation. She loves this book. Surprisingly, after reading the book to her, she has not had any reported problems of biting anymore. Coincidence? Perhaps. Perhaps not. This book sure is worth trying it for yourself. July 10, 2008 Teeth Are Not for Biting Teeth Are Not for Biting (Best Behavior Series) This is a great book to read to toddlers to teach acceptable and unacceptable behavior. It has colorful pictures and using simple words easy to understand. This book also offers tips and advice at the end for parents and caregivers. June 6, 2008 Great book for a toddler! I wish I would have seen this book four months ago when my now 17 month old toddler was in his biting prime. Nevertheless, I still purchased it (his biting had already significantly decreased) and I'm very happy I did. Once in a while his biting will "resurface" and home we go after day care to take a look at his "Teeth Are Not For Biting" book. The words are very simple and catchy, the illustrations are perfectly colorful for a toddler (white and bright teeth being the focus) and he actually gets the hint that "teeth are not for biting"! I highly recommend this book to any parent of a baby/toddler. Good to have, especially before the problem begins. March 11, 2008 Future Children's Librarian bears her "Teeth" The best behavior series is tackling children's less than desirable behaviors one by one;preventing kicking, hitting, the sharing of germs, tail pulling, and now, biting. The text highlights the benefits of teeth for activities such as chewing and smiling as well as acknowledging situations where children might want to bite and alternatives to biting. A variety of well-drawn illustrations present a variety of children in multiple environments. The text does not follow a predictable pattern-while some phrases are used repeatedly, the pattern changes a few times over the course of the text, from "Teeth are not for biting" to "Biting hurts" and back again, which may be confusing for the 0-3 year old audience. Parents may appreciate the resources for discouraging biting and assistance with teething available at the end of the book. January 2, 2008 Cute book, message works! My son had a real problem w/ biting, but after reading this book over and over, I really saw a reduction. It's a cute book, great pictures. Def would buy it! December 3, 2007 Effective to stop biting As the director of an early childhood facility, we go through cycles of biting with the children. This book is one of the most effective books we use to help children, families, and teachers work through this difficult developmental stage. We have two copies--one for the classroom and one to send home for the parents to read with their child. December 2, 2007 Great teaching tool This book is a great teaching tool to help little biters understand that it isn't appropriate. It offers alternative ways to get over the urge to bite, too. October 25, 2007 Great book, easy for kids to understand This book helped my child learn that biting is not OK. even when you are getting molars, or frusterated. Its simple and teaches that there are other options besides biting. My son now says "not ok biting". A must for those who are going through this difficult stage with their child. We read it everyday. Teeth are for crunching & smiling. Not biting. Please know that this is truelly a phase for kids and they will understand that is not acceptable and that it hurts our friends. A MUST for children. Excellent author, and illustrator. October 22, 2007 It worked! I was very pleasantly surprised to see the effect this book had on our little biter. As the 3 year old brother to two older sisters his communication skills ,or lack thereof, caused much consternation and ultimately biting. When we all sat down to read the book he GOT IT. Now we say and 'teeth are for eating!'. We haven't had a problem since. October 11, 2007 No more biting! This book has been a great resource & asset for our son who kept biting his brother when angry. He likes the book so much that he keeps asking to read it. The book seemed to get the point across when all of our time-outs and talking had not changed the behavior. For more Teeth Are Not for Biting (Board Book) (Best Behavior Series) reviews click here.
