Do you want to introduce books to your child at an early age, but feel they are still too young to read?

If yes, Disney Princess: Princess Magic (First Look and Find) is a wonderful choice. I bought this book for my child when she was just two years old, and it quickly became her favourite.


Why This Book Is an Instant Hit with Toddlers

  • The large size of the book allows toddlers to spread it out on the floor and enjoy the bright, colourful illustrations on every page. Because the pictures are big and clear, children can easily identify objects without getting frustrated.
  • Each illustration depicts familiar fairy-tale scenes featuring characters from Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, Snow White, Cinderella, Aladdin, and more. This familiarity helps toddlers actively participate by pointing, matching, and searching for objects.
  • The book helps enhance early vocabulary by introducing everyday objects such as books, clocks, spoons, bowls, flowers, butterflies, markets, and more — all naturally woven into the illustrations.

What Makes This Book Special

  • It is a board book with a cushioned cover, making it durable and long-lasting — perfect for toddler hands, much like I Am a Kitten, which is also designed for early independent exploration.
  • Even without adult guidance, children can spend long periods simply enjoying the pictures, as each page is thoughtfully designed with multiple elements to explore— much like Snuggle Up Tight, where illustrations gently guide children through the story.
  • The book includes additional activities at the end, related to the stories on each page. These activities help teach shapes, counting, colours, rhyming, and creative thinking, while also giving parents ideas for similar activities at home.

My Personal Takeaway

  • I was able to teach my toddler the names of many objects she spotted in the pictures. This expanded her vocabulary and helped her recognise and name everyday items in real life.
  • The big, colourful illustrations kept her engaged for long periods, allowing her to learn naturally — even without reading.
  • Over time, this book helped increase her attention span and sparked interest in other books as well.

I would happily rate this book 10 out of 10 for toddlers who are just beginning their journey with books.
