The Quiet Book

I am working on a quiet book for Boston right now. I've finished over half the pages, and my plan is to have it complete by our trip to Arizona that will be taking place the second week of February. I was going to wait and do a big reveal of the book once I finished it completely, but I'm just so happy with how it has been turning out, that I just can't wait! So, here are some of the pages I've finished so far:


"Pick an apple." The apples snap on an off, and can be put in the basket once they've been picked.



Match the shapes with Velcro shapes.


Noah's Ark


Finger puppets that live in the Ark. These are one of my favorite things about the book so far. They turned out so adorable, and I didn't even have a pattern for them.


Mittens to put his hand in.


Balloons that snap on and off


Flowers to be picked.


Mr. Potato head. I love the way he turned out, as well. He's a lot of fun.


The alphabet page. There are extra letters in the pocket so he can spell his name and other words that need two of the same letter.


A mailbox. I'm working on some notes from both me and Justin that I am embroidering on some felt post cards so he'll have some mail.

I also finished a counting page, but I don't have a picture of it for some reason.

Just 6 pages left and then I can bind it and stitch it together. Here's hoping I'll get it done in time.
