I Like Myself! by Karen Beaumont
Give your kids a boost of self-confidence with this silly rhyming picture book about loving ourselves unconditionally! Colorful, quirky images and a catchy rhyme scheme make this book one that your kids will want to read again and again and adults will love the message too.
Rhyming books build phonological awareness, while opposite words help bring attention to vocabulary.
I like me wild/ I like me tame. I like me different/ and the same.
This book will help your child practice their talking, reading, and writing skills. Start a conversation with your child by asking them what they love most about themself.
Extend the book with affirmations!
An affirmation is a positive statement you will say to yourself every day.
Watch The Affirmations Song on the Doggyland YouTube Channel to hear some examples of affirmations:
Choose an affirmation from the song, or create your own. Write your affirmation on an index card and decorate it with crayons or markers.
Hang your affirmation card somewhere you will look at it every day, like on your bathroom mirror. Repeat this affirmation to yourself frequently to encourage confidence.
