Budding Family Sibling Books

Celebrating Big Transitions Through Literature

© Rachel Lister

Becoming a big brother or sister can be a difficult time in a child's life. Creating a Big Brother or Big Sister book can help make the transition a little less scary.

Welcoming a new family member can be a difficult transition for first time big brothers or big sisters. Some children may struggle with the idea that they will be getting a baby brother or sister. Making the event something exciting will encourage children to be more open to the idea of adding a baby to the family.

Budding Family, a publishing company focusing on helping children through life changing events, encourages families to celebrate life events through literature. Budding Family was created by Renee Raab Whitcombe to help guide children though important life events by providing them with a personalized photo book that walks them through the excitement and anxiety of becoming a big brother or sister.

Easy to Use

The Budding Family sibling books are beautiful hard cover photo books featuring bright designs that are appealing to children. Each page includes an insert card that is easy to remove and makes it simple to add your own pictures to the book by pasting your photo directly over the marked space. Older toddlers and preschoolers may enjoy helping mom or dad put the book together.

“Look Who’s Going to be a Big Brother” and “Look Who’s Going to be a Big Sister” use a fill-in-the-blank format that makes it easy to personalize the book and make it unique to your child. Toddlers and preschoolers will love story time when they are reading a book all about themselves and the things that are happening in their lives.

Prepare Your Child for a Sibling

These beautiful sibling books are a wonderful way to prepare children for big transitions in a way that is developmentally appropriate and exciting. They would make a very thoughtful gift for any child in your life that is getting ready to become an older sibling, whether he is struggling with the decision or not.

It is best to begin preparing younger children for a new sibling a few months before the baby’s arrival. Trying to prepare a toddler or preschooler to welcome a new baby too far ahead of time can be confusing for a young child who does not yet have a firm grasp of time. The sibling books by Budding Family are a wonderful way to ease a child into the idea of becoming a big brother or big sister and make a beautiful keepsake photo album that the whole family will treasure for years to come.

Budding Family also offers beautiful “Big Brother” and “Big Sister” announcements and a “Look who’s Moving to a New Home” Photo book.
