A wonderful kids' book full of fun and educational bedtime rhymes

Exploring Cities Bedtime Rhymes is full of enjoyable and easy-to-read rhymes that are ideal at bedtime and other reading moments. The topics explored will ignite and fuel a child's imagination. Through entertaining and enlightening verses, kids will have fun learning about the past, present, and future of cities.

Quality of life requires innovation,
to make cities great in every nation.
With lots of new ideas in the mix,
there are plenty of things a city can fix.

Along with colorful and educational rhymes, this book includes fun illustrations and a cast of cartoon kids and animals as guides from all over the world. These friendly characters make the book an inclusive and rich experience for both girls and boys.

Water is essential for us to all exist,
from drinking to cleaning it forms a long list.
Old pipes can create waste from leaky holes.
A smart city will fix them as one of its goals.

This book provides rich insights for kids about the world around them. While lighthearted in nature, the rhymes are nuggets of learning on a wide range of important civic topics. They includes areas such as:

  • Public safety
  • Water management
  • Internet of Things (IoT)
  • Healthcare
  • Transportation
  • Energy

Drones will drive the streets and fly up high.
They'll go beep-beep to avoid you and buzz through the sky.
Deliveries, inspections, and more without a crew.
What do you think drones could do?

Along the way, the book explores a wide variety of contemporary subjects such as:

  • The future of energy
  • New forms of transportation
  • The role of healthcare in the community
  • The rise of megacities

These magical rhymes are taken directly from the popular and 5-star reviewed companion book, Exploring Smart Cities Activity Book for Kids.

The rhymes and insights are created by award-winning smart cities expert and author, Dr. Jonathan Reichental, and Brett Hoffstadt, a successful engineer and best-selling children's book author.

"You've found a great balance with fun rhymes giving important information... I love the illustrations and diversity of characters and places around the world too."

- Bernadette B., Ireland, School Teacher (reviewer of "Exploring Smart Cities Activity Book for Kids")

If you're looking for a fun and smart addition to your child's bedtime or daytime reading routine, this book is a one-of-a-kind addition that will provide years of enjoyment.
