The Baby on The Way

Every child at some point in their life wonders about babies. They wonder where they come from, how they got here, and many other things. This story does a beautiful job of explaining the amazing story of birth. Without going into too much detail, it allows children to see what it is like in the world of a mother.

This would be a great book to use if a child in your classroom was expecting a little brother or sister. It would also allow for a good discussion. The children could be given an assignment to go home and ask their parents about their "baby" story. They could then share them with the class. I think this would be an awesome book to read and have activities to go along with it.
