When he finds out it's Mom's birthday, Bob drops everything to wow her with a cake. Or at least, that's the plan.
¿ A sweet rhyming story about playfulness, dedicated to all the daydreamers out there, ages 4 and up.
"Cake o'clock" is an invitation to accept and appreciate our kids' perceptiveness and help them deal with the challenges it might bring along. All it takes is a shift of perspective to perceive inattentive, forgetful children as creative and resourceful. Let's do it! And have our share of fun while we're at it. The moment we become parents, grandparents or caregivers, we receive this unique, precious gift: an extra pair of eyes to see the world. This is our chance to live childhood once again, to play more and worry less. Having keen, eagle eyes is our kids' superpower. But having more than 2 eyes (4, 6, 8 - the more, the merrier) is quite a superpower too. Ask any kid if you don't believe me. A.T.
Life is anything but boring for Bob, an observant, sassy kid, who lives in the moment and can't stop noticing the marvels around him. Even the slightest, most unremarkable thing can send him straight to Wonderland. But what will Bob do when he has to finish a task quickly and the clock keeps ticking? Come along with Bob on his quest to bake Mom a cake and find out why cooking is more about love than it is about ingredients.
Together with your child, explore topics like: creativity triggers, distractibility, the passing of time, the importance of planning, and unconditional support.
Tick-tock, tick-tock, enough with the talk. Let the fun begin!
