Every parent should read this
What an eye opening book, not even just for how to understand the different ways to love your children, but on how people in general feel and express love differently. I firmly feel that every parent should be sent home with one of these books after having a baby. It has helped me understand things from my childhood and the lack of love I received, it has helped me understand my husbands love language and of course my sons. This book has revealed so much in so many different levels. It is any easy read and hooked me right away.

Easy read and full of good information. The first book I would recommend to any parent.
This book is great for those of you that already put effort into your relationship with your children. The main bit of knowledge I took away from reading this book is how to make that same amount of effort count for more. If you have already read the original 5 Love Languages book you will know what I mean. Even for those of you who have read it there are some great examples that will help you transfer those ideas from the first book into your relationship with your kids.
If you haven’t ready the first book that was intended for married couples (or non married couples in a serious relationship) you can still read this book no problem. This was written as a standalone book that does not require the reading of the authors first book.
Kids are easy to love, and of course sometimes not so easy but we care for them just the same. It is easy for us to see when they care about us because they are so basic in the way they show affection. As they get older into adolescence this changes a bit as they get more complicated. My children are 4 months, 2 years, and 3.5 years old. Even though this book will be more helpful with children ages 8-18, I am already using the concepts of this book with my 2 and 3.5 year old and seeing results. This book will show you how to let your children know you care about them. My 3.5 year old just needs hugs but my 2 year old needs time spent with him. When I started doing this his typical 2 year old “touch everything I shouldn’t” actions went away. It was a moment to cherish when we could leave the remote controls for the TV out on the end table again. When my 2 year old started getting the love he wanted he stopped acting out and this book showed me in an easy to understand way how to see what my child wanted and give it to him. Now did I ignore my child before? No Way. When I get home all the kids go crazy and jump on me and we wrestle and tickle. My 3.5 year old tells me about preschool and my boy shows me his toys (the same ones as the day before). We all eat dinner together followed shortly after by taking baths or showers. Then we have nights with no TV where my wife and I will read them books or they will play and sometimes we let them watch a show or two. Its not like we are bad parents at all and this book isn’t aimed at making bad parents better. This book will show you, whatever type of parent you are, how to show your children you care for them so they see it. When your children feel more loved by you they will be more confident, act out less, and be able to show you better how they care for you. Its a win win with no real extra effort needed other than what you are currently putting out. You just might need to redirect some of your effort. This book is a short easy read and I recommend it to any parent.

This Book is a Must-Read for All Parents!
I had been intrigued by The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love that Lasts for awhile and finally read it last year. I loved it and it made so much sense to me. My husband and I ended up discussing it for awhile and still do occasionally. We have five-year-old boy/girl twins and I felt it was important for me to read The 5 Love Languages of Children because I want my children to grow up securely, knowing they are truly loved.
The 5 Love Languages of Children is written by Gary Chapman, author of The 5 Love Languages, and Ross Campbell, a psychiatrist who specialized in the parent-child relationship. If you’ve read The 5 Love Languages, you will recognize the same elements discussed in that book but this time, they apply to children, which is where Ross Campbell’s expertise comes in to play. Since children are ever-changing and differ developmentally than adults, the concepts presented in this book are a great way to get to know your child better and hopefully have a more peaceful, loving household with children who grow up to be loving adults.
This book is comprised of 223 pages and there is a chapter devoted solely to each love language. Then, there are chapters that discuss discipline and learning, along with the love languages. There is also a chapter to help you find your child’s love language, although this can be difficult because children are constantly changing so it’s definitely a great idea to learn how to speak all five to them!
I’m so glad I read this and I wish I had read it sooner. My kids are still young and I think what I’ve just read can really help as they get older. I’ve been thinking about what their love languages could be and it’s actually a bit difficult to pinpoint but now I’ve got the tools to help figure it out! If you are a parent, I strongly recommend reading this book. I’m glad I bought it so I can refer to it in the future. Even if you’ve read The 5 Love Languages, you’ll want to read this one as well since there are differences between children and adults and the way they think. It’s worth the time to read this book!

I am so grateful for this book. I feel so much wisdom flowing into me! Not only is this book great for understanding the love languages of our children but also for deep-rooted personal things as well as with my significant other! I’ve learned SO MUCH! Any new parents or even if your kids are teens… maybe even graduated college or maybe they’re married! Definitely recommended if you are a parent or will be!

A must-read for all parents of children of any age. Amazingly useful and insightful, with an easy to apply approach to detect which love language category your child belongs to. Highly highly recommend it

Many good books have adaptations for different audiences/circumstances. This adaptation about children is a must read. I know extrapolating ideas from the original piece works but you would miss the examples in this this book that are about children specifically rather than romance. How you relate with your children affects how they relate to you and others. If your child is going through rough changes, this book can help. Audible.com (an amazon company for audio books) at the time of this review is also selling the audio book for under $4 CAD. Many reviews detail the content, so I’m not going to waste time covering it but I do have a companion suggestion:
“A Perfect Pet for Peyton” is Chapman’s children’s book that uses examples how different animals relate to children demonstrate the love languages to children. Each child’s love language is related to their multiple loving actions and how their perfect pet expresses love. The examples include a helping border collie dog for acts of service, a giving monkey for gifts, a cuddly bunny for touch, a cat that loves following and spending time with people for quality time, and a sweet parrot for words of affirmation. Why each pet is paired with that child is explained in a way for kids to grasp the concept. This book not only was enjoyable time spent with my kids, it ended up giving me a strong visual of the 5 love languages. My children (3.5 and 5 years old) loved it and enjoyed discussing it as we read. They also liked the mini activities on each page (simple seek and finds). I have read this book off of my iphone, ipad and computer (the only issue was the insects were to small to find on the iphone).
