Quiet books are a fantastic (and quiet!) way for little ones to do some tactile play and learning. Excellent for helping to develop fine motor skills, colour and number recognition and just plain fun.
You can mix and match the pages from these various patterns to create your own unique quiet book design.
Many of these link to tutorials for a multi-page book. I just couldn’t include pics of every single template or this post would have been a mile long. Just make sure you click through to see the complete offering!
Sources of Materials for Quiet Books

Happy Crafting,
I would love to make quiet time books for my baby nieces and nephew, but really need lots of help with ideas as I don’t even know how to get started!
I am a beginner. These quiet books are adorable. I’m going to try and make one for my New Grandson.
PLEASE!!!! Make and sell these!!! I am 66 years old and keep my 1 and 3 year old grands. I need to buy these. My hands don’t allow me to craft these. Thank you so much.
