My three-year-old is struggling to understand the concepts of morning, afternoon, and night. Time concepts in general are difficult for him, which I know is common at this age. Does anyone know of a good book that teaches these concepts?

Storybots has a song on times of day. It's an app with tons of minute long educational songs. We love it. Other than that, just talk about it a lot. It's a tough one to grasp. If you really want to focus on it, you could make a basic task chart. In the morning: we get dressed, in the afternoon: we wake up from nap, in the evening: we eat dinner, at night: we sleep.

@Mrs Green Grass: thanks I'll look that up- yeah we talk about it but he has some weird misconceptions that I can't seem to correct

@travellingbee: What kind of misconceptions?
E is always telling me its morning, even when its not!

@Cherrybee: same. He thinks anytime the sun is up it's morning. And "late"means night to him. So if I say hurry up we are going to be late, he says no it's not late it's still morning! Look-the sun !
So I just thought a book with pictures might help.
