Little dude has started school. Early morning he
wakes up, dresses up, takes his breakfast and water bottle and goes to school.
He learns nursery poems, listens to stories, and
gets potty training and learns how to socialize with other kids.
I thought he could be ready for some sight-reading
too and decided to make for him a chap-book.
The easy way to get the child interested is to
show him something that he is familiar with. Every child is familiar with the
people he meets everyday. The family that is close to him. Hence I decided to
make a chapbook with the pictures of his family members.
I went through his album and selected the
pictures of all his family members. I then worked on Photoshop, writing text,
drawing balloons wherein I inserted sounds, splitting the words into syllables.
With all the pages in order, it was ready for
printing, cuttings and arranging the pages in order.
Next was stitching the pages to make a book.
The greatest joy was seeing the little dude excited
to see his own pictures in a book!!!
Yes, he is learning phonetics now!! I am
extremely happy……
