Q. How old is your child?
3 1/2 years, 2 years, & almost 4 months
Q. Is your child male or female?
The older 2 are female. The baby is male.
Q. What type of children’s book catches your/their eye?
Books with bright, colorful illustrations.
Q. Are you more likely to buy a book which has an educational idea behind it for your child?
Coming from a teacher's perspective, all books are educational, in that they promote pre-reading and reading skills, so in that sense, my answer would be "yes." If you mean books that teach a particular concept, the answer would be "sometimes."

Possibly
Q. Does your child listen to audio books?
No.
Q. Is cost an important factor to you when buying children’s books? If so how much are you willing to pay?
Sometimes it is. We usually spend between $5-$10, but may spend more (around $15-$20) if it is a gift or a very significant book.
Q. What’s your child’s favourite colour?
3 1/2 y.o. likes green, 2 y.o. likes blue
Q. Does the font size make a difference to whether you buy it? Do you prefer bigger or smaller fonts for your child’s books?
Not necessarily. It has more to do with how easy it is to read. Overall, I prefer bigger, but not huge.
Q. Is the size of a children’s book an important factor to you? Does your child find bigger/smaller books easier? If so which one is easiest?
I don't think it really matters. My girls tend to sit in the floor with their books, anyway.
Q. Does your child like different textures in a book?
Very definitely, especially the younger ones. The oldest is beginning to outgrow that interest some.
Q. Does your child like lots of different characters in a book, or just a few?
I haven't noticed, but most of their books only have a few characters.
