What theme would you like for your party? What do we need to prepare? And who’s going to help? Helping with real tasks is a natural progression from pretend play, and is a crucial stage in a child’s development. Achieving a shared goal encourages a sense of responsibility, and develops many skills useful in later life. Simple conversational text and lively illustrations are carefully designed to encourage further dialogue between reader and child.
This book is very cute. It shows children how to prepare a party (birthday party). This will encourage them to help parents/adults with very simple real tasks: help to make the cookies, make party decorations, distribute the party invitations to their friends, etc.
The illustrations are good and simple sentences are easy for children to understand.
