Ever wonder what your fruit in the kitchen get up to all night? Look no further than Kitchen Disco, where the fun is only beginning when the daylight ends. From the banana spinning tracks to the lemons break dancing, each fruit has a role to play in serving energy and fun. Everyone is invited to the bash, even humans – surprised as they might be. But just like us, the fruit need their sleep as much as their fun. Immerse yourself in the warmth of a bedtime routine as their night unwinds, clambering back into the cozy warmth of their bowl – come morning, it may all feel like just a wild, fruity dream…
What can top the secret lives of kitchen fruit? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. This book is pure gold to me and just plain ol’ boogying disco fun. I nearly cackled when I saw the banana DJ playing their BananaRama set. It’s a perfect bedtime story for little ones, whose eyes will be glued to the bright psychedelic pages and catchy, repetitive rhymes. It’s playful and silly while offering the cozy transition to slumber, helping your child get the wiggles out before unwinding for bed. Bedtime has *never* felt so fun.
All aboard the routines-are-fun express! Check out their latest books, Veg Patch Party and Bathroom Boogie where they have done the impossible: convince me that waking up and going to the bathroom are wildly exciting experiences! Adults – these books are written just as much for you as they are for the kids – an unofficial ‘Puns for the parents’ campaign that I respect.
