[@audreyoswita984]

I came back here to say thank you so much for your recommendations! I bought some of the books while I was pregnant and my baby loved it so much. He’s two months old now. Will be getting more!

[@geemeera10]

How do you not have more subscribers! I'm sharing it with all my mom friends. Thank you for making these videos! Keep it going!!

[@Feelgoodmama]

Thank you so much!

[@sonashriram3094]

I love that you do your research before talking about these topics for children. You are completely accurate with the details and don't fill the internet with misinformation like many other KZbinrs do. Such a lovely channel!! I enjoy your encouraging tone! You are also a wonderful representative for Moms or parents from India, especially given that most mommy videos are created by Western parents. Your videos are so much more culturally relevant! Best wishes to you and your family! ! And yes, We too don't have a lot of toys but have a huge collection of books.

[@snehatendolkar7508]

Your videos are very helpful. Your talking style gives peace of mind + lot of brand new information 😇. You are a great momma! Thanks much for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us!

[@hpeacock6488]

[@ninubose9468]

Vidya .. you have done a very good job . I was searching for some books for my little grand daughter who is 8 months old now. She is very sweet . Her name is Ninu . I am very impressed by the info which you have extended .. Thank you .. Plz post more for my little girls development . May Krishna help you in your projects . I feel so nice to hear that you have been honest to submit here that you get a part of commission by suggesting the books , but believe me - you are doing a job which - may be- we would have to pay to specialist . So what you are doing is perfect enough , and the books that you have suggested are just good for our baby . I am going to order them all .Cheers .

Try the first 100 words book, reading books to babies is awesome, as long as you don't force it. If they don't love it they'll just move away

[@indumalhotra3187]

[@angieanj3337]

Hi Vidya! My baby is currently 6 months old. Would you pls recommend a book? She's teething and drooling a lot. I haven't read any book with her yet. I just have alphabets flash cards and posters of animals, numbers and fruits in our room which we study every day. Thank you so much.

I would go for that high contrast book for sure, apart from that please recommend 1-2 other books from your knowledge.

[@Feelgoodmama]
