Bear is really into acting out the books she reads. When we read Happy Birthday, Harvey Hare! she wrote her own invitations and prepared a birthday party just like in the book.
Tonight we read The Big Green Pocketbook.
When I called her for dinner, she didn't come. "What are you doing?" I called. "I'm the girl with the green pocketbook." I turned to look and she was drawing a picture (as does the girl in the book near the end). So I made her a big green pocketbook out of construction paper so she can play out the book tomorrow.
Sounds like a good book! Anna is rarely interested in playing out books - I was just thinking that perhaps I could encourage her a little more.
ReplyDeleteThis is a really fun book! We just finished reading it last week. I set up the different places around the house and followed the girl and her mama's adventure after every reading! Check it out here! :D
