Nareen Rose has been working with toddlers since the age of 12. She is a former Sunday School teacher who always made it her mission to clap or hug the students who engaged with the lessons. This was Nareen's way to make sure the children felt happy and safe in the classroom, and she could see it in their bright smiles. Nareen learned that children love to be engaged in an activity. The opportunity to work with children in a classroom setting led to Nareen to becoming a teacher in her professional career.
During her pregnancy, Nareen read story books to her unborn child, and after he was born she continued to do so. Nareen wrote "Make Baby Happy" to suggest activities that can keep any baby laughing and learning!

Make Baby Happy is a cute action picture book for preschoolers by Nareen Rose. Do you know how to make a crying baby happy again? Does your baby like to be tickled? How hard can it be to get a baby to smile? Tickle the baby’s ears and a smile will appear. Tickling other parts like a nose or forehead will also bring delight to toddlers. Place your fingers into your ears, stick out your tongue and make funny faces to get amusing reactions from a baby. You can also make silly sounds like the choo-choo of a train, pretend to be an animal and make their sounds, or hoot like an owl. These activities are fun for everyone.
I’m sure you’ll find other playful ways to keep a baby laughing and in a good mood. It isn’t always easy, especially when they are teething or they just woke up on the wrong side of the crib. Make Baby Happy has adorable pictures of actual babies along with descriptions of the activities they’re involved in that should bring them joy. Other suggestions from Nareen Rose to parents and caregivers include trips to the park and having playdates.

If you’re in doubt of what to do to Make Baby Happy, this book by Nareen Rose will give you ideas, and you will be inspired to create your own.
