Help your child make a Journal about them!
Weigh your child, measure their height, talk about their hair color, eye color, what they want to be when they grow up, their favorite movie, what they love to do at school etc. Start a journal that is all about them and help them come up with things to put in it. This increases their awareness about themselves and will help us have things to talk about in the classroom! We will be doing a book about them and this will help them get familiar with themselves when the time comes!
