Olivia and I were reading her ABC "flap" book this morning. For each letter of the alphabet, there are several pictures of objects beginning with that letter along with a sentence giving a clue about another picture under the flap. I was reading the first part of the sentence to her, she'd then open the flap and use the picture clue to complete the sentence. For example: (picture of a saw on the "S" page) "A saw is a tool, so is a ____" and she'd open the flap and say "screwdriver!"
We went through the book and she "read" with 100% accuracy, relying on the picture clues the whole way.
We came to the "Q" page. I read, "Queen starts with Q, so does _______"
Olivia opened the flap and saw something like this ---------->
"Qu, qu, quistmas tree!"
Correct answer = quilt, though I gave her points for qu, qu, queativity!
*Were there no other less-confusing quilt patterns to choose from?!
