THE SPARK (box set) |
||
Sarita Cameron illustrated by Karen Perkins This box set contains a full colour book which comes with five earthy gifts (a rainstick, a feather, a postcard, a liquorice root and a lavender bag) to promote a sensory and informative experience for young minds and grown-ups too! This adventure story explores issues of planetary awareness, self-expression, happiness and community. It is a fun and enlightening read in the home, and a wonderful way to teach children. Just read the rhyming poem to your children and follow the instructions within the text that shows them how and when to use the included gifts. When it’s time to explore your sense of hearing, listen to the rainstick; when it’s time to explore your sense of smell, sniff the delightful lavender bag; when it’s time to explore your sense of taste, let the liquorice root tingle your taste buds! And so on with all of the gifts included. Children enjoy the story both in an imaginative and physical way that gives real meaning to its elements. There is also a read-along CD with background music by the Kaya Percussion Ensemble – perfect for when parents are feeling a little tired! |
