If Animals Could Drive Cars Mary J Simpson

This book contains 30 connect the numbers dot to dot animals driving cars. There is also a space below the pictures for the child to write what they think the animals are thinking. These are great for practicing counting numbers. They are designed to be fun-to-do activities which help develop important skills and abilities. These are appropriate for children ages 6-9+. If a child is already counting by age 5, they may enjoy the challenge of doing the dot-to-dot pages. Older children may also enjoy them.

Kids will benefit from this book by

Practicing their counting and number recognition skills Practice in pencil control Developing fine motor skills in coloring the completed designs Developing and using their imagination as they think about and color each picture Using their imagination and writing skills as they describe what animals may be thinking Being able to take pride in each finished project

Following through with projects and having a sense of accomplishment and pride in the completed challenge are important to a child's development. As their skills grow, they will be encouraged to look for more challenging things to do. Having fun while doing so makes this enjoyable and rewarding. It is my wish and desire that anyone using this book has a wonderful time in accomplishing each project.
