Starting School Sticker Book: A Review

Starting School Sticker Book (Getting Dressed Sticker Books)Starting School Sticker Book by Felicity Brooks
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A simple, kind and easy to use sticker book.
There's plenty of room in this, unlike those in Little Digger & Crane Stickers, and the designs are simple with the stickers chunky enough for little hands.
Would highly recommend to introduce kids to their first days at school - ooor homeschool if I may put it.

Gratitude Plates

What's one way to bring gratitude to the dinner table outside of saying out loud what you're thankful for? Writing on a paper plate what you're thankful for, of course! And I'm here to show you how to make those gratitude plates, just in time for lunch or dinner. Or breakfast if you have toast or a cheeseburger.

You will need:
  • A pack of paper plates
  • Some felt tips or permanent markers

  1. Get out some paper plates (or maybe one if it's near to lunch or dinner) and colour a pattern around the edges of the plate using three colours. Mine would be using yellow, pink and purple. What's your's?
  2. With each time you approach the table with your chosen plate, and wait for dinner, you write down some things you're grateful for. Bonus points if it's something you really enjoy!
And then, you're ready to enjoy your meal - because meals aren't complete without gratitude, it's not just for Thanksgiving.

Helpful Ninja Tip - Lunch & Dinner

Just like Helpful Ninja in his book, instead of slacking around playing video games, you can help your parent or guardian lay the table. Try not to get too distracted and carry everything at once, take everything slowly, and remember not to break anything. If you're still learning about matching and pairs, try to get your parent or guardian to ask you things like, "Which dinner set is the same as that dinner set?" or, "Which one is different from the other's? The grown ups', or the kids'?" These kinds of activities can be enjoyed when it is time to enjoy lunch or dinner, and maybe if you're feeling lucky, you can help your parent or guardian dish up dinner, and even maybe speak French just like Bandit in the Bluey episode 'Pavlova'!
