Each page has really helpful tips for parents and carers that are endorsed by The Good Toy Guide and leading Early Years Consultant, Dr Amanda Gummer. With delightful illustrations from Marie Kyprianou, No More Dummies is a brilliant way to support the process of giving up the dummy in a fun and relatable way.

For more toddler tips read No More Nappies, Let's Wash our Hands and I'm Starting Nursery.

The Big Steps series has been endorsed and recommended by Dr Amanda Gummer's Good Toy Guide.

The Big Steps books are a great way of introducing children to different life skills and building their confidence and familiarity with doing them. Watching characters their own age experience different things goes a long way in letting children know that they are normal, healthy and not scary. The children enjoyed pointing to the different pictures, opening flaps and naming objects, which is fantastic for helping to build their vocabulary and prepare them for learning to read. The book is also sturdy enough for enthusiastic hands. Our testers found the little tips at the bottom of the page useful and in one case, they helped to transform a reluctant dresser into someone who is happy to get dressed most mornings! * Dr Gummer's Good Play Guide *
