I've been working on this Quiet book for almost a month now and I finally finished it and I just wanted to show it off.
Cutsie Cover, yet still boyish.
Match the Shapes Page. This is the first page. It has a little pocket holding all of the shapes. Helps learn a lot of different shapes.
This is page 2 & 3
Sort the Apples. There is a hidden pocket in the tree holding all of the apples.
Hang the laundry out to dry. There is a laundry basket and all of the clothes can be hooked on the line to dry. It also has a bird that you can velcro on and off. Velcro is a must in a quiet book, even though it's the most unquiet thing about the quiet book.
Pages 4 & 5
Lace the Loops. Helps with counting and hand eye coordination.
Count the Gumballs. You can take the buttons/gumballs out of the gumball machine and put them in seperate pockets. Helps with counting and each gumball color matches a pocket color. There is also a little pouch with money to put in the machine for fun.
Pages 6 & 7. Braid the Lions tail and The other page is a puzzle page. It has a big pocket with the peices in it.
And it makes a 6 piece owl puzzle.
These are the last pages (8 & 9).
Button the Flowers. You can button the flowers and snap the leaves on and off.
Last page is Match the Socks. You can take one of each pair of socks off and then match them. I used hair clips for the detachable sock.
Brandon LOVES it, so that makes it worth it. It was way more work than I anticapated, but I got the idea and started thinking of all the pages I could do and I got all excited about it and I'm really happy with the way it turned out. And I hope it will help keep Brandon quiet at church..

Lori! That is amazing. By FAR the coolest quiet book i've ever seen! Good job! ...and when do I get mine? ha ha ha ha. :)
Oh my gosh that may be the most adorable thing I've ever seen. I am so jealous you are so awesome. Lately I find myself wanting to be you! Honestly YOU ROCK, YOU ROCK, YOU ROCK!!!!!
Ditto on amazing! And you said that came from your own pattern? You are the goddess of crafts.
Holy Cow Lori! I can't believe that only took you a month to make. I am sure it will keep your kids and grandkids quiet for years. It better after all that work, right? I am uber impressed!
That is insanely awesome Lori! How in the world did you find the time to do that? You’re so creative. You should start your own line of children’s books!
Thank you thank you. Very flattering. It's kind of funny, before Christmas I told Ben, don't get me anything crafty, I don't think I'll be doing anything crafty for a long time, because of kids, but its been the opposite, I guess being in Idaho, has given me a little more time. I'm thinking of doing an etsy shop and maybe selling some quiet book, we'll see I guess.
Lori, this is so awesome, so when can I expect mine? You are so talented! It great
Wow, you are crafty! That is an awesome quiet book!
Ok so seriously I stayed awake at night thinking about how cool you are.... still jealous. You're the coolest ever. I know I said that already. I just want you to know I really mean it!
I LOVE this book! You did such a great job at this.
