Book Themed Activities for “The Little Donkey”
It a well known truth that kids learned through play. They also learn to love books when books are a normal part of their day. From morning baskets to bedtime stories, books are part of learning. I just love it when I can take it a step farther and include hands on activities to go with a story. This is perfect for those times when a child just can’t be still, or its rainy outside and you want to corral your kids into quieter inside activity.
The Book
The Little Donkey just needs a friend. Don’t we all? We meet the little donkey in a field, his wild behavior is about to get him sent from the only home he has ever had. He is saved by the patience of a little girl who sees past his wild actions and sees the lonely heart inside. In many ways this is an ode to those who act out in ways that seem rude or wild. Instead of more or harsher discipline what they really need is patience and a friend. You can read more about it here, or purchase it in my store, or at most bookstores online. Also available on Amazon and Barnes and Nobles, along with many other online stores.
