Board books are generally better for babies than regular books due to their durability and design. They are specifically designed for children aged 0-3 years old. Board books are made from durable paperboard, have rounded corners for safety, and are shorter in length, usually containing 12-24 pages. This makes them more suitable for babies and toddlers, as they can easily hold, turn, and even bite the pages without causing significant damage. For babies aged 0-6 months, board books are an excellent choice because they can withstand the wear and tear that comes with young children exploring their environment. As your baby grows older, you may want to introduce a mix of board books and regular books, depending on their developmental stage and interests. However, for the age ranges you mentioned (2-3 years, 1-2 years, 6-12 months, and 0-6 months), board books are generally a better option due to their durability and age-appropriate content.
