Today in Reading 301 I had to tak

The other day I bought the kids I babysit for a new book. The youngest one Lane is obsessed with Finding Nemo and every time he sees a fish he screams "Nemo"! I decided to go to Barnes and Noble and buy them a Finding Nemo look book. It has different activities in it for the kids to find various characters hidden in the pictures. Lane picked it up and kept saying "it's mine". They had a lot of fun with it which surprised me. Even the eldest Kyle who is five really enjoyed finding Dory and Nemo. It always astonishes me how much they know at a really young age. I also read to them Brown Bear, Brown Bear and played a game with them where they would guess what animal would be on the next page. I did this with the 2 and 3 year old. They eventually took the book from me and "read" it for themselves simply from memorization. I really love how much they enjoy reading and learning.
