Quiet Books Provide Fun Learning for Kids Ages 18 Months to 11+ Years

Busy Books Australia offers quiet books suitable for ages 18 months to 11+ years, but may be suitable for other age groups too. While quiet books are fun for kids to learn from during playtime, they can also be used to help further develop in areas they may not be as adept in at school. This is why the books are broken down into different topics to help kids be able to learn specific skills as they grow at a pace that suits them.

The purpose of Busy Books is to help children develop their problem-solving, fine-motor, vocabulary and resilience skills, but can do so much more. Our mission is to change the way our youngest generation learns, nurturing their natural instincts and tapping into the latest in childhood education from the experts.
