Do you have a baby on the way and have a child already at home? If so you might consider buying some sibling books to help prepare your child for their new baby brother or new baby sisters arrival.
As we await the arrival of baby number three any day now we have been busy trying to prepare Harry (aged 6) and Daisy (aged 3) for their new siblings arrival.
Reading a few of these books about the arrival of a new baby have definitely helped them understand the changes that will happen. Harry can remember Daisy being born and is really excited about the idea of a new baby, but it is a new experience for Daisy so we have had to talk through the idea of me being pregnant and having a new baby a little more with her.
