My 5yo nephew is really into a kids book about wastewater treatment plants lmao. Folks have posted very good recommendations (I was going to recommend Calvin and Hobbes)- so I’m just sending positive unc vibes.
On an adjacent topic, I’ve also had luck with giving cooperative board games to nibs in that age; basically board games where you work cooperatively to win together rather than competing to win individually. Figured that’s another good way to turn them into lil commies lol
ooh what are some good co-op board games??
“Castle Panic” and “five minute dungeon” were both well received by 5 year olds!
