Have your preschooler pen the next great American memoir. A favorite book for preschoolers to write is a record of an outing or excursion. It is a way to make a lasting memento and and be able to relive an event that is meaningful. Think family vacation this summer . . .
Get fancy or keep it simple. You can staple together some pieces of
paper or index cards, or buy a blank book, or use a commercial service. Encourage
your child to write and illustrate her own books. You provide the raw
materials, but let your preschooler dictate the contents—literally and
figuratively.
The book can be wordless—let her tell
her tale with pictures. She is getting a taste of what goes into planning what
goes on the page of a book, recalling a sequence, and communicating something
that is important and memorable for her.
