My one and a half year old daughter absolutely loves this book even though she does not watch Sesame Street she and does not know that Elmo is a character from television.If you are a giant ham who loves to give theatrical book readings, this is a great book for your family. After we are done reading, my daughter will almost always stand up to stomp her feet up and down and say "Hokey Pokey" (actually, it is something closer to "Ooey Pooey," which is even cuter). But I digress.The book is an appropriate length for small children and begins with Elmo inviting the reader to do the hokey pokey with him and his friends. Elmo individually does the hokey pokey with his friends over a two page spread, slightly changing the words to the hokey pokey to fit each character (for instance, Grover he falls down and Elmo helps him up, Zoey leaps around, the Count, well, counts and Cookie Monster, of course, eats a cookie). At the end of the book, Elmo does the real hokey pokey with all his friends at the same time.If you enjoy giving an award-worthy performance while you read to you child, I also recommend Doggies (Boynton on Board).
This little board book is a nice size for toddlers. We take it along with us in the diaper bag so my son always has a book to enjoy when on the go. My son enjoys when I "sing" him the words on each page that are words for the song, "Hokey Pokey." It includes nicely illustrated, brightly colored pages with Sesame Street Characters throughout the story. There is Big Bird, Bert, Ernie, Grover, Oscar, Zoe, Cookie Monster, and the Count. Each character bringing with him a unique version to contribute to the Hokey Pokey song. For example: Cookie monster says, "Bring your right cookie in, bring your right cookie out." I would recommend this book for any baby or toddler.
this book was okay but it confused my daughter that it didnt follow the song and the characters were doing different motions that the normal ones. but okay for elmo lovers that just want to book to carry around and look at.
My kids love this book! They constantly want me to sing it to them, and they love making the motions. It's a nice size--not too big for them to handle--and would fit great in a diaper bag or purse.
Cute. Fun. Great for the car. Small and easy to hold while riding in a car seat. Dancing is always fun while buckled in your car seat!!
Engaging book that allows your toddler to follow along with the motions. My twins love it and it is a durable board book.
Content is excellent - this would be very useful in a larger format. Fine as is for one on one or with a leader.
My 18 month old granddaughter loves it. She wants to do the hokey pokey all the time now.
