Right At Home
*Back-dated post*
I bought this cloth book back in May and only introduced to Ern like 2+ months ago. One thing I like about cloth book, it is safe for our kiddo to bite and washable. Even at 16+ months, Ern still bite occasationally as she is still in the teething stage. This book is handy as it's zipped and a holder to carry around. Definetely a good idea for traveling (I have done it during our Hadyai home trip)!
This interactive book comes with 8 animals for the children to put in the right homes, like "Turtles live in shells", "Dogs rest in a kennel'. Each animal is placed in a nicely sewed pocket with a name on it. So when Ern is older, this is a good tool to teach her to recognize the word.
Ern loves it on the very first day when I introduced this book to her. I guess she is like her daddy, an animal lover, especially on dog (don't know if it's related to the Dog year she was borned).
The first 2 animals that she put in the right homes are turtle and fish. 2 simple reasons: Turtle is on the first page, so her concentration is higher. Moreover, she can lift up the shell. As for fish, she is so fasinated on the so called fish bowl (a plastic cover actually). I guess that attracks her attention.
After few weeks of repeating, she was more or less can place the right animal at the right home, except on dog and kangaroo. Maybe they look alike to her and confused her sometimes.
Just last week, she is able to place all the 8 animal at the right home. Hooray...happy kid and happy parents!! LOL
