“I've really enjoyed every book I've read in this series. The finger holes that allow you to create legs for each character are super fun and while my toddler isn't old enough to create the legs himself, he thinks it's hilarious to watch me do it and love to try to grab my fingers. The illustrations are cute and the text is a great length and has a good rhyme scheme.”

“The finger holes for I Can Play are so fun! There are a few other books in this series, but I love that this book talks about teamwork. This book is sure to occupy little ones for a long time as they use their fingers to be limbs for all of the people in the book! I also love that this book talks about all the wonderful things we can do with our bodies: jump, kick, run, etc!”
