Alphabet Animal Colour005965
With a page for every letter of the alphabet, this educational colouring pad takes children through the ABCs picture by picture. At the top of each page is one letter of the alphabet outlined in uppercase and lowercase form, letting children colour or trace the letter shapes to gain familiarity and to practice writing letterforms. An oversize label for the main picture is written out in crisp, clear letters, so kids see how each character becomes part of a word, and how each word relates to an object. Even if children skip the labels and just grab a crayon and have fun colouring in the pictures, they’ll be playfully picking up information about letter sounds and making cognitive connections: The whimsically illustrated pages encourage children to spot and colour numerous examples of the featured letter in action. A picture-search list in the bottom margin adds to the fun and helps kids catch every detail: a sock-wearing serpent sipping soda, a collared cat carrying crayons, a gorilla, giraffe, and goose gobbling grapes, and much more. It’s a colourful way to build fine motor skills, letter recognition, pre-literacy skills, and creative expression through a timeless kids’ art activity with universal appeal.
