Book Cover & Preview Text
As Jaylen was cared for while his dad and mom were at work by his great-grandmother (Gg), she had the privilege of introducing him to sights, sounds, tastes, smells, and touch of everyday items, objects and concepts. As they ate, played, talked and walked …in the home, at the park or rode in the car he interactively discovered that cars and trucks move in traffic, that airplanes fly in the sky, that ants crawl on the ground and that the city traffic lights have three (3) colors: red for STOP, green for GO and yellow for Caution {prepare to STOP}! He learned directional concepts of up, down and under also. Therefore, we wish that your discovery learning moments will be as much fun…on a daily basis as Jaylen’s were. Be adventurous, have fun and enjoy your learning moments together!

About the Book
This book is dedicated to discovery learning and the individuality of each child’s ability to learn his or her Aa, Bb, Cc’s in the context of his or her household and lifestyle before Kindergarten. The photos in this picture book embrace the use of many everyday household item, details and real objects that have helped increase vocabulary, beginning sound strategies, recognize the letters in the alphabet and to learn his Aa, Bb, Cc’s in and out of order. In addition, the learner is exposed to learning some positional prepositions, pre-writing skills, manners and more. Given that there are so many objects and items seen and handled on a daily basis in Jaylen’s home, he playfully learned each meal time, story time, naptime, and outdoor time. Yes, we had fun learning Aa for ants, Bb for boat, and Cc for chocolate and so on. We hope that you have fun naming these pictures with your child as well as having him or her name their own …A-thing, B-thing or C-thing, as noted at the bottom of each page.
