Bizzy Bear: Soccer Player

My 2yo is big on food so this one is now her favorite. She loves the cutting tomato page (similar to the alligator page in Zookeeper) but I think the 2 wheel mechanism pages are the most brilliant. If you’ve owned other Bizzy Bears, you know what I mean. The spin the gear pages show different pizza pie toppings and a traffic circle with characters from far away coming closer (without being upside down)! Each page is wonderfully colorful and full of little details. This and the Halloween one (big book version) are my personal favorite Bizzy Bears. Looking forward to more!

We have at least 10 different bizzy bear books. My sons (14 months old) never want to read anything else. I'm not sure if this one was defective or it was just designed poorly. All the other bizzy bear books are easy to move for the little kids. This one the pop up/pull pages get stuck everytime. They are unable to move them themselves. I can barely move them myself without them getting stuck. I've had to hide this one because they just get frustrated with it.

This is the fourth Bizzy Bear book I have purchased for reading to my grandson. At one and a half years old, he is easily able to move the activities and have fun reading the book. We have had building in my community since he was born and he is enamored of trucks, so this particular Bizzy Bear book is great. It shows all sorts of building being done. He likes the story and playing peek-a-boo with the workers in the house.The story is very simple to read, the activities are fun, and we read it several times a day and then look for trucks outside from his upstairs window. After the truck disappears, this is the book he grabs and then climbs on my lap for storytime.

Bizzy Bear is our favorite. Hands down. The books are durable (trust me, my 17 year old is hard on them). They are fun with lots of moving parts and short, interesting stories that rhyme. We have stacks and stacks of books and without fail my toddler always grabs one of these when he sits down to "read." I'm pretty sure we will eventually own every title, because he gets a new one for every major holiday. We ordered "Zookeeper" and "Knight's Castle" to put in his Easter basket this year and he got "Fire and Rescue" and "Let's Get to Work" in his Christmas stocking a few months ago.You really can't go wrong with any of the Bizzy Bear titles.

The story is cute and tabs move easily; however, I was disappointed that the cover of the book was dented and torn. It wasn’t damaged enough to return and reorder, but it’s disappointing to spend money on a product that is damaged.

We discovered Bizzy at the library and ordered as many of these online. The 12-month-old loved them for a year. Unfortunately, loved these books to pieces. It was a matter of time before he would try to tear at the pieces. A few times I could repair them with glue and packing tape. Out of 5 of the books, I think 2 of them are still in ok condition. I would still get them because of how much the child loves to interact with the movement and they are sturdily made. It is just that if you are not staring at the child every second that they are with the book (or any book) it is likely they will try to tear at it.

Bizzy Bear books are great for toddlers. Details to look at and talk about. Activity/motion on each page. Seem indestructible.

My go to baby shower books - great for starting a new little ones love of reading.

Story is a little too simple but I suppose that's expected since the book is more for hand-eye coordination then for content. The manipulation of the parts can be a bit stiff for certain pages. It sometimes gets stuck due to poor cutting of the shapes. Although construction vehicles are my son's favourite, he lost interest quickly due to these reasons.

My DS favourite books!!
