Today is our last day of school so of course I’ve been busy thinking about summer activities. One thing we love to do around here is read. We always start the summer with a trip to the library and often max out our card limit of 50 books. If you are looking for some ideas to encourage summer reading, check out this fun post.
On our journey to reading, this ABC photo book was a favorite project I made when my little guy was a toddler and learning his alphabet.
Matching the letters with my pictures was actually quite fun!
Here are a few other ABC and First Words photo books that I think would get any kid excited about reading this summer…
A quick Google search will yield ideas for each letter of the alphabet such as:
A | Apple, apple juice, applesauce, ask, art, astronaut, airplane, autumn, ask, aunt, ant, alligator, artichoke, automobile, arrow, acrobat, asleep, appetite, artwork, anniversary, asparagus, anticipate, await, artistic, avocado, apron
For my book, I looked through my pictures and came up with the following letters: aunt, adventurous, books, bubbles, bikes, cowboy, cars, Dad, dimples, dress-up, eyes, family, fish, friends, grandparents, helmet, I love you, jeep, kiss, legos, Mom, naked, outside, pirate, quick, ride, read, sister, sledding, skiing, swimming, trains, tractor, uncle, umbrella, vroom, water, xoxo, yummy, zzzzzzz.
Happy reading!
