What a great Christmas gift...!
We’re always on the look out for fun books we can read with Noah. He enjoys touch and feel books, The Jesus Storybook Bible, an his bookcases full of other ones, but tonight we introduced our son to something epic. Something awesome. Something known as……
My mother in law (knowing my personality all to well) gave me The Tickle Monster Laughter Kit as a Christmas gift last year (which was only a few days after arriving home from the hospital with Noah!) As soon as I unwrapped the package and slipped on the included Tickle Monster gloves I couldn’t wait to introduce Noah to the awesomeness known as The Tickle Monster….!
What a great Christmas gift...!
He may not like The Tickle Monster now...but he will!
Baby Noah may not have been ready for The Tickle Monster at 2 weeks old, but he is now and I’m happy to announce the start of a wonderful friendship. It looks like The Tickle Monster will be a regular guest in our house..!
I think he's changed his tune about The Tickle Monster!
“I’m all in a tizzy, quite frizzy and dizzy, My finger are squiggly, your piggies are wiggly.”
The Tickle Monster is filled with great lines!
If you’re looking for something fun and new to read with your child, I highly suggest visiting Amazon and picking up The Tickle Monster as soon as you can. Don’t worry, you can still keep Goodnight Moon in your storytime rotation!
The Tickle Monster is welcome anytime in our house.
The Tickle Monster is a WIN in our house!

Wow! What a fantastic resource! I can see why you have talked about it with such enthusiasm. I will definitely be looking for it and recommending this story to parents with children who have special needs. Thanks
Thanks Deb,
When Noah was born seeing videos of what our life [could] be like one day when Noah was older was was very helpful for us, but the problem is there just aren't many GOOD videos and info online. So we figured why not just make a resource ourself. And here is the result.
It's a lot of fun. :)
that video is too precious! i will definitely have to get this storybook! i am sure Jo will enjoy it as much as noah does.
Yes, it is!
Be sure to let us know if you end up picking it up, and let us know how Jo (and you) liked it.
awesome! this is going to be my christmas present for everyone with kids!

Cindy, that sounds awesome! Let me know how they like it!
Thanks for the book suggestion, we'll have to check that out! It may make a good gift for our little Noah!
My daughter loves those gloves. She wears them all the time...makes for great photo opps.
So fun! I put them on Noah's hands and they swallowed him up! :)
We bought the book - didn't remember about the kit. But love it! Can't wait to read it to Enzo. There are so many books to read. Phew!
Awesome...we can't wait to see some video of you guys reading it! :)
Harrison also just got Tickle Monster for Christmas! My sons (Jamison, 2; and Harrison, 7 mos. tomorrow)and I LOVE this book! Harrison wore the same "Baby's 1st Christmas" pjs as Noah did last year. So glad my friend introduced me to this blog!
@Marisa,
That's awesome! How did he like it? You should grab some videos / photos and share them on our Facebook wall! :) (http://facebook.com/noahsdadcom/)
And that's funny about the pi's.......Now that I have a child I'm starting to realize that just about every store sells the same children's clothing. :)
I enjoy sharing in Noah's day he is so cute and bright :O)
Awwww. Thank you. We enjoy sharing his story with everyone. :)
Do you have any children?
I love this one!! We would love to get this book for Reuben, but, i think your accent makes the book! could you tape yourself reading it and we could do the tickling? ;)
hahahaha...sure! Are you trying to say that we sound Texan? :)
If so, just wait until you hear my brother reading to Noah on this recordable story book! hahahahah
yeah your bro has a cool accent . thanks for sharing! xx
I will have to get that book. My son will love it! He is a lover of books, and this one will be a favorite I'm sure!
Though these are for older kids, look into the I Stink and I"m Dirty books. They are about a trash truck and a loader. The author has some other similar books We also love a book called Where's Bear?
If you have any other book suggestions, please post them.
Thanks
Ohhhh...thanks for the suggestion, I'll have to check that out. We're always up for good books.
I should do a post about Noah's favorite books! :)
How old is your son by the way?
We will have to add this book to our collection. I love the photo of Noah with the gloves. Top favorite at our house right now is the pigeon series. (Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!) Thank you so much for the blog/facebook, love seeing the pics of Noah.
