This book celebrates the importance of having a name. The pages are filled with names and how we might have gotten our names.

The book tells us how to introduce ourselves, and how we can share our name with others. A name is a great way to identify and share a bit about you.

Early Literacy Skills:

Vocabulary - Your child will develop their vocabulary by learning the many names that people have.

Print Awareness - Names fill the pages of this book. Conversation bubbles with names show how we communicate our names or use a name to address a person. 

Letter Knowledge - Your child will see capital and lowercase letters in the names in the book. They will see that some letters have similarities, or they will hear when you read the different sounds of the letters in a name out loud.

Early Literacy Practice:

Children may know the first letter in their name. Talk with your child about other words that start with the first letter of their name.

Sing the ABCs with your child to learn the letters that make up a name.

Have your child play with different textures to learn to write other letters.

This craft is great to help your little one learn their letters and how to spell their name.
