I had not heard about wonder weeks until I read it on Hellobee the last month or so. I have signed up for the leap alert emails. Is it worthwhile to purchase the book? Are there websites or blogs that would be just as helpful in terms of what to do during these periods?
-
They make an iPhone app for the wonder weeks. It is only $1.99 (I think), and is much cheaper than the book.
-
@ChelseaRose: where can i sign up for the emails? i don't know anything about the book as i only heard of the wonder weeks on HB recently as well.
-
I bought the app because it has a chart that tracks your LO's age and tells you when to expect certain behaviors. It also gives you details about each leap, and activities to try.
-
@PurpleUnicorn: The wonder weeks website, I think.
-
@WALLAROO: @photojane: I've never heard of this before. Subbing to this thread. Hope you'll keep us posted and review the book OR app!
-
@WALLAROO: did you end up buying the book, the app, or find an alternative website? I think we are entering one and wondering if I should get the app if its as good as the book
-
I have the app. It's hit or miss with whether his fussy times coincide with the chart on the app so I'm not really a believer.
-
@Navy_Mommy: I just bought it. I read a synopsis of week 11/12 and it sounds like K to a tee! When my happy baby suddenly is being rely different, I looked it up. I guess I want the app more to know what developmental exercises I can do with her. I know all the growth spurts and wonder week claims are broad. Did you find the exercises to be helpful?
-
@shopaholic: I bought the app. Their fussy periods haven't always coincided with the chart but it is still interesting to read up on it and do the activities suggested.
-
@WALLAROO: Thanks! I was too impatient! haha! I bought the app! Glad to hear the exercises were interesting at the very least!
-
@shopaholic: I love the app! Sadie is a really happy baby (just like Miss K!), so if she starts acting weird/fussy, I immediately look at the app. She's been right on track with the WWs so far. I love having all the info about what she's developing and learning in her mental leaps!
-
@shopaholic: I haven't noticed the exercises to be that useful, but for 2 bucks it didnt hurt to buy it, lol.
-
I bought the book after reading about it here. Unfortunately I did not find it that useful. I feel like every wonder week chapter said the same thing and didnt really help me deal with her transitions any easier. I've just learned to accept them as they come.
