Real Pictures = Real Understanding

Choosing books with pictures of real people or objects helps with learning more about the world!

Do It Together

Share these books with your child by looking at the pictures, reading the words and connecting what they see in the book to real objects in their life.  For example, if there is a picture of a teddy bear, point to it and say, “This teddy bear looks like your teddy bear, doesn’t it?”

Why?

Young children have trouble connecting a drawing or abstract picture to real things in their lives. Pictures will help your child recognize things in their world more easily.
