Mommy, where's my book???



Silly Mommy! Can I upload pictures of one child's book and not the other, when 2 books were made that day? Here is Simonne's book on her favorite subject: butterflies. She had me show her images of butterflies on google images so she could choose the butterflies for her book. And I figured out something about uploading pictures!

We started making books!!



I tell you, everything can be found on youtube! One of our goals for this new year was to make books. I found a video on how to make books with children, by Susan Gaylord (note her website: http://www.makingbooks.com/aboutsusan.shtml) and decided to try it with the children. We have sooo much artwork that happens here every day, I have to hide and throw some out! (I'll blog on that at another time). I've been hoping to convince the small people to use them as illustrations in a book. I'll share with you Zachary's first book. He chose all the content himself, wrote and illustrated it! I hope you enjoy it.
