For despairing moms and dads everywhere, "Supernanny" Jo Frost may as well be wearing a Wonder Woman costume. Her no-nonsense rules--not tips, not advice, but rules--for consistently managing one's offspring leave no room for arguments (or wrestling matches). From her arms-akimbo stance on the book's cover, it's clear she's in charge, and ready to instruct all wishy-washy (overworked American) parents how to lay down the law in their own home. She offers her "top ten rules" for setting boundaries, managing mealtimes, even surviving toilet training, and it's mostly rock-solid, and peppered liberally with British wit. (For parents who obsess over their toddler's every meal, she warns: "It doesn't take long for them to work out the obvious: you can't make them eat.") Frost may not have a degree in child development, but she was raised in a stable, doting family, and has 15 years' experience taking care of tots, a combination which puts her way ahead of most parents. She may be firm, but by setting definite boundaries, she sets the stage for parenting to be more of a "joy" and much less of a "slog." You can raise your sippy cups to that. --Erica Jorgensen
Book Description
Meet Supernanny Jo Frost, a modern-day Mary Poppins here to rescue today's beleaguered parents by offering up her practical, road-tested methods of childrearing in an indispensable new book based on her upcoming ABC-TV series.
Jo Frost, a.k.a. Supernanny, is the answer to every stressed-out parent's dreams. In ABC's upcoming primetime TV series by the same name, Jo works miracles on problem children by dispensing hard-won wisdom and reassuring us that parents really do know best. The Supernanny method gives parents the know-how to tackle problem areas such as mealtime, bath time, bedtime, bedwetting, homework, sibling rivalry, aggressive behavior, or a child who just won't do what he or she is told to do.
Divided into action-oriented problem and solution sections, Supernanny will show parents how to restore harmony and authority in the home using the Supernanny's ten basic rules and her effective, no-nonsense approach to problem-solving. For example:
Problem: What if your child refuses to go to bed?
Supernanny Solution: Develop a bedtime routine so that the child can get used to a consistent pattern that she is not going to be able to change or manipulate. A routine will set up a calming sequence of events that will be designed to help the child relax.
Problem: Toilet-training Supernanny Solution: Prepare your child by taking any hint of shame or disgust out of what is simply a natural fact of life. Keep the door open, bring her into the bathroom with you, and explain what's happening, including the use of toilet paper and the washing of hands afterward.

Great parenting reference !.......2007-07-25
Quick and easy to read. You can easily flip to a relevant section and put it away again for the next parentig dilemna. I am buying another copy for a friend.
Very Practical & Effective.......2007-07-04
Great book, you can start using her advice with almost immediate effects. Keywords that gives this book value: respect, love, care, discipline, and lots of praise. Enjoy!
good-in-desperate-times.......2007-06-28
This book is easy to read and to the point, no nonsense, you will love it...
I recommend it to all parents and granparent.....anyone who has to deal with children.
Eh, luke warm on this one.......2007-06-08
This is really much of the show re-hashed. I was excited by how pretty the book was and the typesetting and the photos but there is just no meat to this. I was hoping for more.
100% recommend this book.......2007-05-16
I am a nanny myself (2 boys ages 3 and 7)and have found this book to be extremely helpful because of Jo Frost's insight regarding what motivates a child's behavior, the parent/child relationship, the frustrations that children and parents sometimes feel,the dynamics of a household. Jo Frost respects and loves children and it shines through in her book. I personally would rather take advice from a person who has had 15 years hands on experience working with children of all ages and all types of backgrounds in all types of families, than listen to a child psychologist who may not have had that broad range of experience and may only rely at times on what they read in a textbook (no offense :) Most of the children that are in the area I work in are currently seeing therapists and psychologists, and I have seen no improvement in their behavior, or they improve one week and regress the next. (no offense :) But watch SuperNanny's show and while nobody is perfect, you have to admit that her techniques tend to work, and make a whole lot of sense. She just really understands and respects children, and that is a high priority when seeking to have a wonderful relationship with them. (This is only my opinion, not meant to offend anyone, have a wonderful day).
Book Description
Guaranteed to help parents reclaim sweet dreams for their entire family
New from the bestselling author of the classic baby sleep guide!
Getting babies to sleep through the night is one thing; getting willful toddlers and energetic preschoolers to sleep is another problem altogether. Written to help sleep-deprived parents of children ages one to five, The No-Cry Sleep Solution for Toddlers and Preschoolers offers loving solutions to help this active age-group get the rest they--and their parents--so desperately need.
A follow-up to Elizabeth Pantley's megahit The No-Cry Sleep Solution, this breakthrough guide is written in Pantley's trademark gentle, child-centered style. Parents will discover a wellspring of positive approaches to help their children get to bed, stay in bed, and sleep all night, without having to resort to punishments or other negative and ineffective measures. The No-Cry Sleep Solution for Toddlers and Preschoolers tackles many common nighttime obstacles, including:
- Refusals to go to bed
- Night waking and early rising
- Reluctance to move out of the crib and into a big-kid bed
- Nighttime visits to the parents' bed
- Naptime problems
- Nightmares, "night terrors," and fears
- Special sleep issues of twins, special needs children, and adopted children
- Sleepwalking, sleep talking, snoring, and tooth grinding

Consistency is the key.......2007-07-31
I think when any parent picks up a book like this, the situation is already out of control or at least something that needs tweaked. I found myself with a newborn baby and a 2 yr old that a couple months before moved from our bed to her own "big girl bed". Little by little my little girl found her way back into our bed. There was no room for me, my husband, a newborn and a toddler, so my husband ended up sleeping in our daughter's room. Something really wrong with that picture. I was searching the internet for some answers for my questions and to look for a fix, and found Elizabeth Pantley who was looking for test moms for her new book for toddlers and preschoolers. I was fortunate enough to be selected as a "test Mom" for this book and very proud to say that the modifications that we made as a family worked for us.
Every one wants instant results, they think by reading something it will miraculously happen. It takes time, some kids adjust well quickly, some will adjust over many months, but the importance of this book is that consistency is the key. I could have given up many times to get my daughter and later my son into their own beds, but I knew that it wasn't going to be overnight and I came to accept that.
My daughter has a nightly routine, it is still the same routine at 6 as it was at 2. I took what Elizabeth Pantley gave to me, and applied it to our bedtime battles. I am not saying that you have to use what she says word for word, you may have to make adjustments that work for you and your childs personality. But I do know that it works. My daughter slept through the night at 2.5 yrs old and my son was about 13 months, and thankfully I had this book because I was able to curtail some of his bedtime battles at a much early age.
Yes it does work and it is a very easy read, but like I said, if you are looking for a quick fix, I think you will be hard pressed to find that anywhere. If you are serious about making a change, Elizabeth gives many options and alternatives to make this a successful change.
Works with every parenting style except CIO.......2007-05-25
This book proved so helpful to me and my family. It helped me to understand just how much sleep my almost two year old son really needed and how important naps were no matter how much sleep he was getting at night. I love that she gives so many examples and basically says that sleep is important no matter your parenting style. She does not seem to have a bias for/against anything other than no "crying it out". She explains her reasoning for that too. I highly recommend this book to anyone who thinks their child has a sleep problem and to anyone who thinks they don't have a sleep problem but they have a child who is cranky and clingy. I'd give more than 5 stars if it could be rated higher.
NO CIO.......2007-05-23
This book is wonderful for those who choose to put their kids to sleep on their own without making them cry-it-out. It works!
Helpful encouragement, good ideas.......2007-05-16
If you are looking for a gentle approach to helping your child sleep through the night, this is a great book. I also appreciate that the author is sensitive to the needs of mothers who are breastfeeding their toddler or pre-schooler. It is encouraging to read that you are not alone in having a toddler who does not sleep through the night. This book has some good ideas that I have used, but I have not put the full method to use. The downsides of this book are that the full method requires a long-term commitment and effort and if you have any doubts about it - as I did - you are not likely to follow through. Also, the author at times is too rigid about not letting your child cry. I have not practiced the "cry it out" approach at all, but with my child's temperment and personality there are times when she cries for a few minutes in bed before falling asleep and I have had to come to accept that as a reality.
Loved this book!.......2007-05-13
I found so many of the suggestions in this book to be helpful, and even bought it as a gift for another mom.

Customer Reviews:
Really helps give the basics.......2007-10-14
This book would have received five stars from me but for the lack of bright pictures. There's no denying that pictures really help engage young kids so for the kindergartener to second grader titles at least, the publishers could have considered using larger images and more colors. But all that aside, this series is a great comfort because it helps seal whatever "gaps" I feel may be in our homeschooling curriculum. I like the way they include not only stories and fables but also ideas on teaching math and necessary info on science, history etc. I also use the series to back up lessons. For instance, I read my son the King Midas story and compared it with another version of King Midas in another book to explain how different authors tackle stories differently. It also gives me ideas for lesson plans and it helps wrap up our day when I either read it to my son or he reads it independently as a bedtime storybook. Altogether a great multi-tasking series.
Great starting point for kindergarteners!.......2007-08-24
Once I got past the fact that they spell 'kindergartner' differently than I would (and yes, I even checked dictionary.com to verify their way was correct, lol!), I set about examining the book itself.
The series focuses on defining the least common denominator of what children absolutely must learn before moving on to a higher grade, and I'm very grateful for some level of guidance. I'm a (newbie) homeschooler, and I could not for the life of me find any kind of reference to tell me what skills are the most important to learn at the kindergarten level. With this book, I finally did.
This book not only tells me the essentials of what should be covered, but also ways to teach them and gives references to other books that I can use to do it. As so many before me have said, the curriculum included is not all your children are expected to learn in kindergarten. However, it provides a solid place to start.
The introduction is excellent and helps the reader understand that when our children are being educated, there needs to be a common ground--things that all children need to learn before moving on to the next grade level. Having moved at the end of 2nd grade, I know all too well what it's like to be bored out of your skull in class as your teacher covers things you already learned eons ago. And if a kid from my new school had moved to my old school, imagine the stress of suddenly being expected to know things you've never been exposed to!
One comment of this book really got me. The parent who felt she'd scarred her child for life by reading Casey Jones to him really made me shake my head. A responsible parent will read a story he or she is planning on with a child in advance, to make sure that you want to and are ready to discuss anything that the story might bring up. Don't blame the book; blame yourself for not doing your homework. It took me less than 2 minutes to read the Casey Jones story, which I did based on that review. It was the story of a brave man who sacrificed his life to save the lives of many, much like another story I expose my children to all the time.
Didn't like all the stories & they were violent.......2007-08-17
It seems to me this book is very highly liked by the people that home school. Which is great. I do not home school my children and i did find a few things interesting. But nothing that i couldn't find in another book about history etc.
I mostly did not like all the "classic" stories and poems. I grew up with many of these stories and KNOW my parents and grandparents told them in a much less violent way. I will be returning this book for sure.
If you don't want to tell your child stories about death, violence and hitting then don't waste your time on this book. I know they will learn this at some point....but let them be children for the short time they are innocent.
Good luck!

Millionaire in 365 Days: The Daily Plan to Get There
Start early since this may be the only education your kids get...nice book...
Homeschooling made easy.......2007-06-04
If you want to homeschool in the easiest style imaginable, this is the book for you.
Personally, I would urge a new homeschooling parent to read "Give Your Child a Superior Mind" and do a little research on Froebel's theories, but if you have minimal time to spend, this is THE book for you.
Customer Reviews:
Appropriate for Preschoolers.......2007-10-14
After reviewing several books, I found this to be the most appropriate book for my preschooler on this topic. It is a good place to start having conversations with your child and is sufficiently vague enough not to frighten him or her. I think if you have the expectation that this book IS the conversation, you will be disappointed.
Great Book.......2007-07-19
This is a wonderful book, especially for parents who are uncomfortable with things like this and don't know where to start. It's definately better read aloud with the child, at least the first time, so that they can ask questions.
scared my kid a little.......2007-07-07
My young school aged child was a little scared by this book, but the topic is important. I would still read it to her again (and will). Know your child, but your child NEEDS to know about this danger in a gentle way --- this book is a good place to start.
Appropriate .......2007-05-17
I had been looking for an age-appropriate book for my 2 1/2 year old twins on the subject of body awareness and molestation prevention. The problem was that most books either just talked about body parts, or were written for an older child (so they were scarey or just over their heads). This one really addresses those problems. It is a perfect introduction for preschoolers on the subject.
Good book for younger children.......2007-05-12
I bought this book for my 7 year old daughter. It may be intended for younger children as it is quite basic. I was hoping that it would cover more information for her age group, but it was good book to purchase.
Product Description

Customer Reviews:
Inspiring, grounding.......2007-09-11
There is so much info out there bombarding moms on toys and games to push there kids to "parrot" information back to parents so the parents are acknowledged for their kids "intelligence". I loved the down to earth, child friendly info in this book. I do not believe in pushing children to learn beyond their developmental readiness. Kids need to be running and jumping and singing, there is plenty of time for them to sit and be still and learn... As a teaching I believe one of the most important things for children is internal self confidence and a love a learning. This book lays out the 1st 7 years. Get it!
Great Book.......2007-09-10
This is a great book and I am so glad that I bought it. My only regret is that I didn't buy it sooner. If you are expecting or a new parent I would definitely recommend this book to you.
Great approach, encouraging, do read critically though........2007-09-03
Very interesting book. Great to reinforce things we already know and suggest ways to enact our ideals as parents. I especially liked the specific suggestions for kinds of toys and for activities. Gentle, realistic, and encouraging suggestions regarding discipline. Good citations of studies to back up concepts. Those new to Steiner, Waldorf, and Anthroposophy should be aware it is very "Stainer oriented" and the realities within this "spiritual science" are considered a given, though not pushed aggresively. For example, the ideas about the incarnation process and life forces are used as part of explainations. Read carefully and critically and accept only what you like, study the rest objectively. Spiritual ideas aside, it's a good look at interacting with children in developmentally appropriate ways and nurturing their holistic (all around) growth.
Must Read.......2007-05-17
I think this book should be read by all parents. I was always put off by the title and thought it was about teaching your child early- like baby einstein. It is the exact opposite. The book covers child developement from birth through age seven with a Steiner perspective. It includes activities that are age appropriate and nuturing. It is so packed with information I know I will refer to it often. Each chapter also includes a recommended reading list.
Asian compassion and wisdom in child development for the western head.......2006-06-15
I just purchased a copy of this book in English, because my wife has been translating the Thai version form me and we are both completely impressed by the wisdom contained in this book. My wife is Thai and her parents raised her with the same considerations and compassionate love that the book uses as the foundation for guiding parents how to raise their children. Currently, we are experimenting with the classic US style of education at the American School of Bangkok and will also try one of the Thai Waldorf school near our home and observe how the child responds the each on all levels of development. We, because of living in Bangkok, have the multiple education options incudintg British system, French system, Australian system, Multiple Intelligenc system, Montisori system, Christian schools etc..., and are very impressed with what we have seen in the Waldorf schools. Regardless of which education modality we choose the foundations in this book will guide our child development decisions.
I am completely put off by reviewers splattering their judgements of cultish, religous etc around this book. I just don't get it. If someone writes about Montisorei they reference Maria Montisori. If someone writes about Multiple Intellegence education they reference Harvard's Garnier. The primary researcher is always the source of the knowledge. Let's stick to what we know and not conjecture and judge what we do not know. Steiner was definitely on the something, and in today's world we definitely need all the help we can get in raising a new breed of human.
Book Description
Based on the key Montessori principle that children learn best through active experience, Teach Me to Do It Myself presents simple activities through which children explore and develop their skills. These skill areas include sensory perceptions, body coordination, language, understanding of numbers, and movement. This practical, color-illustrated parenting book is filled with activities and instructions for overseeing children as they carry out a variety of learning activities. Most activities will seem simple to parents, because once mastered, adults perform them automatically. However, toddlers experience a sense of accomplishment and self-worth when they learn to perform them independently. The many activities start with dressing and personal hygiene, then go on to include . . .
- Pouring activities
- Threading and sewing activities
- Peg activities
- Cutting with scissors
- Sorting activities by touch
- A color matching game
- Making musical scales with bottles and water
- Using alphabet tiles to make words
- Growing things in a window box
- Making finger puppets
Activities are described in detail and include checklists of needed items, as well as variations and related activities for children to try.

Teach Me to Do It Myself.......2007-08-18
I would recomend this book as it is really very handy!
It shows you how to teach your child to do practical things in life herself without all the hassel. It also gives you ideas of how you could do it, as all children are different. I think the templates are also great, this book saves you from spending extra money for material.
Fun.......2007-02-17
It is a fun book to have and do things with kids. Specially if they attend a Montessori school. Many of the activities shown are exactly what they do in school.
Probably the best home Montessori book for preschool age.......2007-01-29
I also have _Montessori Play & Learn_ and _Teaching Montessori in the Home: The Preschool Years_. This one contains the same type of activities, but somehow makes it seem simpler than the others, and seems to require less complicated special equipment to be bought or made. If you're only going to buy one Montessori book to use with your preschooler, I would recommend this one.
We love this book!.......2005-12-21
A great find, so many fun and challenging activities - it's a wonderful book for rainy days, babysitters, and grandparents.
parent-friendly and great for kids.......2005-03-22
I checked this out of our local library and found it easy to follow, bright and fun to look at with color photos, and full of resources like pages to photocopy in the back. Also, the activities made me really excited about Montessori methods. The math section was especially nice. I am online today to order my own copy because three weeks to borrow it was not long enough!

A mother tiger wants her baby to go to sleep, but the little tiger resists. "'If I close my eyes,' he said, 'I can't see the sky.'" She assures him that he will not only see the sky when he sleeps, but will float among clouds and be cradled by the moon. Not in the least assured, the little tiger complains that if he closes his eyes, he will miss seeing the tree and the bird with blue feathers. With each concern, his mother consoles him with a comforting thought. If this gentle give-and-take were not calming enough for a bedtime story, Hallensleben's lovely dreamscapes (And If the Moon Could Talk) will surely do the trick. Double-page paintings of cloud animal shapes (with the little tiger cozying up with the moon), the "big mountains where the rain lives," and of mother tiger licking her baby are utterly hypnotic. Young children who are afraid to go to sleep will learn that "Dark is just the other side of light. It's what comes before dreams" and that mom is never very far away. (Ages 3 to 6) --Karin Snelson
Book Description
A little tiger takes an imaginative journey
The little tiger lay on his back in the tall grass.
"Close your eyes, little tiger," said his mother, "and go to sleep."
But the little tiger is worried about what sleep might bring.
His mother reassures him that once he closes his eyes, he will dream of magical places. And when he awakens, she will be right there, waiting for him.
Alternating between real-life scenes with the baby tiger and his mother and enchanted dream scenes of sleep's possibilities, Kate Banks's simple, comforting text and Georg Hallensleben's bright, colorful illustrations make this a charming bedtime story for small children.

Great Illustration.......2007-08-22
I first discovered this book at the library. I liked it so much that I've checked it out multiple times and have now purchased it.
Kate Banks' writing is a parent telling a story to a child. The words are soothing, but become more poetic with each reading.
Georg Hallenleben's art fills the page and takes you into the imagination of the writer.
I am a new mom and have received lots of books as gifts. I buy books used or on clearance as I see them. This is the first book I have purchased for my son at full price - I love it and would recommend as my top choice to anyone. I like it for naps.
Wonderful bedtime story...........2007-07-04
This book is one of my daughter's favorite bedtimes stories and mine. The little tiger is adorable and I love how all the illustrations complement the storyline. I absolutely LOVE this book and recommend it highly.
Purrfect for putting your little one(s) to sleep!.......2007-03-09
The beautiful illustrations and words of comfort help our two children, ages 2 and 4, at bedtime. The baby tiger expresses his fears of bedtime while mommy tiger provides words to calm and soothe.
Simply Wonderful.......2006-05-31
The writer and illustrator of "The Cat Who Walked Across France" team up again in another simple yet totally winning story. This time, our protagonist is a baby tiger--so innocent looking that he resembles a cuddly soft toy--who just can't go to sleep. With the enormous curiosity of any infant, this little tiger doesn't want to close his eyes and miss the sky, the trees, abright blue bird--all the wonderful, wondrous things around him.
In time-honored style, his wise mother counters all his objections with a parallel in his "mind's eye." In fact, she suggests that closing your eyes can bring you an even more varied and rewarding experience:
"The little tiger rolled onto his belly and listened to the leaves quiver overhead. 'If I close my eyes, I can't see the tree.' he said. 'But you can, said his mother. 'You can see many trees, where you can play hide-and-seek until the night finds you and brings you home."
This book was just made for quietly reading to your child as he or she gets into bed! ALong with the quieting possibilities offered in the book's beginning, Kate Banks also soothes the "what ifs." WHen the tiger imagines he's a bird, he suddenly acquires a fear of falling. The mother, who may have read some kids' books herself, answers "I will be there to catch you." IF he gets lost, "then I will find you." Banks knows no fear herself, she even tackles the dark: "'Don't be scared,' said his mother. 'Dark is just the other side of light. It's what comes before dreams.'" (Awwwww...) The sleepy tigers imagines what he might dream of, and illustrator Hallensleben shows us a panoramic view of snow-capped mountains shaded blue and purple, sand dunes with purple-topped palms, and a giant orange fish jumping out of a deep blue sea, a seagull, an orange-billed penguin-ish bird, and the tiger dancing merrily on its back.
Hallensleben draws his typically rich oil colors here, and brush strokes and saturated, unusual color schemes (there's a bit of the Fauve here) are almost too visually exciting for a bedtime book. Still, a darkened room will dampen the colors, and Banks' ever-present, always reassuring mother tiger will undoubtedly work as well with your young audience as it did with her tiger cub.
A wonderful book!.......2005-07-18
This is a beautiful book about going to bed and having wonderful dreams! The story is simple for toddlers to understand and the illustrations are impressive. It really shows young kids' imaginations and that "mama tiger" is always there for her baby.
Customer Reviews:
Well worth reading.......2003-04-24
This is a great book. It is based on facts- studies, observations, etc. It is not an academic book that you might read if you were going to school. It is written for the parent, the person who takes care of children, the average every day person who is curious about how children learn and what can be done to encourage the learning. It is easily read and easily understood.
I particularly like that it doesn't stress pushing your child to learn more, learn faster, work harder. It just suggests ways that anyone around children can gently children learn.
Well worth reading.
Enjoy.
Stimulating and eye openning towards natural ways to educate.......1999-03-01
It is a wonderful guide for parents who are worried about the children's education in a career oriented, competitive world; looking for their child to grow naturaly, healthy in spirit, mind and body; but to also willing help the child in her development participating actively in their education. A child is a natural genius, it is up to the parents to discover all the wonderful potential she has unveiled. I do not want my daughter to be what I want her to be, I want her to disscover it by herself, and I would like to provide her with as much opportunities as possible to widen her choices.
Reassuringly readable without in-your-face academic verbosit.......1997-12-17
This book reminded me of the poster in my high school principal's office, of Albert Einstein and how he didn't talk until age three, didn't read until age 11, kicked out of school at age etc. etc. If empowerment is the word of the decade, then this book belongs in the shopping basket of parents of "LD" kids, educators, therapists, child psychologists et al. Thought-provoking is an understatement- highly readable and "user-friendly."

My daughter's FAVORITE!.......2007-01-05
My 2 and a half year old LOVES this book!!!!! Charlie and Lola are favorites of hers and this episode always brings giggles galore! Now that she has the book at least once a day she "reads" it herself. It has traveled with us everywhere and I am going to have to get a spare just in case something happens to the one that she has... it is a keeper!!!!

A Must Have Book For the Parents of Gifted Toddlers.......2003-03-01
This book is excellant! I have bought many books on gifted children and this is one of the best. This book is especially great if you have a gifted toddler. It will tell you everything from identification procedures (has a check list)to what the ramifications could be in a child whose talents are waisted because of being overlooked (it can lead to deliquency and depression in adolesence). This book will guide you on how to deal with everyday situations and has suggestions on activities as well as how to focus and develop the emotional needs of this high demand child. This book is a must have your money will not be waisted!
