In this fun fall-themed activity, your child will design and decorate a pumpkin based on a picture book. After completing their pumpkin, they’ll write a short story about a new adventure related to their picture book.

What if your child couldn't see the pictures of a picture book? In this activity, she'll listen to a story without looking at the images, and create her own.

This bookmark is a helpful tool to use during and after reading to remind your child of "good reader" strategies that she can use on her own.
