Why illustrated letters are relevant for today’s child.
Are you wild with frustration because your pint size offspring won’t sit up at the table for longer than 2 seconds? Read on for the solution …
An ILLUSTRATED ALPHABET PLACEMENT.
Why?
- every child is FASCINATED by their own name, beginning with their initial.
- A child want to belong – so placing his personal placemat in the place you wish him to sit is telling him he matters !
Worried it will distract your little person from the art of eating?
My illustrated letters give enough visual attraction to encourage your child to sit up – but do not overload on content so they forget to eat!
If no puzzles , no interactive drawing – what’s in them?!
- Your beloved little person does not need a pen to enjoy my mat, personalised with their own initial , only a fork to get eating! Each letter’s illustration are of animals in action, having fun in the great outdoors . They look at my illustrations then imagine what they would choose to draw around their initial – so My illustrated alphabet is a springboard into their own imagination :
- my S is of a sking spaniel ( because I love sking…and grew up with a speedy spaniel named Benjie) – your Sam or Sophie may prefer skateboarding or surfing . Ask them what they would illustrate their letter with!
So it’s an adventure into their imagination?
- Yes!
- And this includes just BEING . Which is why mice and mackerel on letter M are just hanging out under the mistletoe and why Deer and duck are having a good time being together on letter D . Spending time face to face is important !
Worried about educational value?
I’m not a teacher or psychotherapist but I know a child loves a good story – especially when told their very own is unique, of value and they are given permission to dream theirs up!
To sum up, , my placemats promote sharing, ABC learning, value each person’s uniqueness- promote a love for adventures in the great outdoors, a love of animals and bring a smile to your small person.Getting down from the breakfast table , full of fuel and fun , positive ideas gleaned from my illustrations and your chat, a child is ready to face the day and it’s challenges .
I hope this solves your gift hunting quest – for a child, Godchild, grandkid or for the whole family!
