Children's Learning Activities: Mother's Day Books

There is absolutely no shortage in books about Moms out there. No shortage. I guess that is a testament to how important moms are, right? Here is a list of some books we have read and loved and books we own and love. I have let you know which ones I think are definitely worth owning.

Mother May I by Grace Maccarone

This is a fun rhyming book where the child asks for things, but in the end all the child wants is a hug from mom.

The Most Thankful Thing by Lisa Mccourt

A story about a mom telling her daughter that she is her most thankful thing.

Clifford's Happy Mother's Day by Norman Birdwell

Our kids always love Clifford books. This one is about Clifford and his mom.

My Mommy Hung the Moon by Jamie Lee Curtis

This story is all about the love between a mother and daughter. The mother loves the daughter with unconditional love, and the daughter believes the mother is the best at everything there is to be best at. This is so the way Kaitlyn views me right now.

Llama Llama Mad at Mama by Anna Dewdney

Don't let the title fool you. Llama gets mad at Mama, but Mama patiently helps him turn toward being cheerful and helpful. A great mom book. This is one we own and our kids love the Llam Llama books.

Where Is Baby's Mommy? Karen Katz

Karen Katz is definitely one of my favorite authors for babies and toddlers. This is a fun lift-the-flap board book. This is another one we own and love.

Counting Kisses by Karen Katz

Another one we own and love. This one isn't so much just a mom book--it works for Dads and grandparents, too. But this is definitely one I think is a must-own.

Mommy Hugs by Karen Katz

See? I told you we love Karen Katz. I think that title and picture say it all.

No Matter What by Debi Gliori

In this book, the Mommy explains that she will always love her child, no matter what. This is another one we own and love.

Love You Forever by Robert Munsch

I think this is another must-own. This story takes you from the child being a baby on up to being a grown man and taking care of his ailing mother. This is very sweet and leaves my Father-In-Law in tears every time.

Mom, Wake Up and Play by Brigitte Weniger

This is a sweet story about a child trying to busy himself while mom sleeps in--only he doesn't want to do mom's favorite activities because he doesn't want her to miss out on the fun.

Bear of My Heart by Joanne Ryder

This one could work for Mother's Day or Father's day because the author cleverly never discloses if this is mom or dad bear. It is all about the fun of parent and child together.
