Additional How to Build an A Information
|
Don't just learn your letters—build them!
It's a book, it's a puzzle—and best of all, it's a way to learn the ABCs. Sara Midda's delightful How to Build an A comes with 11 fully safety-tested EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate) pieces that can be pushed together to build all the letters of the alphabet, uppercase and lowercase. In the accompanying book, Midda, the British artist known for her charming watercolors, shows children the way. Each page introduces a new letter—A is for Apple, B is for Boy—and is illustrated with Midda's tiny people, who are shown comically hauling and heaving the pieces into place. Children will love the hands-on fun of bringing the letters of the alphabet to life. And parents will appreciate the mesh bag that comes with the kit, so all the parts stay together and can be used over and over again. For preschool and up.

What Customers Say About How to Build an A:

Wonderful foam shapes teach your child how to form letters before they are able to write. Similar to Handwriting Without Tears wood shapes teaching.
This book was suggested for my 2 1/2 year old grand daughter by her aunt, who has a degree in early childhood development. My grand daughter loves looking at the book and building the letters from the different shapes that come with the book. Would definitely recommend this book.
The two year old boy I babysit absolutely loves using the foam pieces to build the alphabet. The pieces are large and sturdy so it is easy for his small hands to arrange them to make the letters. As soon as I get to his house, he often says, "Let's build letters."
I'll take out this book once in a while, and he will go through every page and build each letter. I read about this book in Cookie Magazine and ordered it for my 3 1/2 year old right away. He LOVES it. The book/blocks come with a little mesh bag so everything stays together. It is very nicely illustrated and easy for a pre-schooler to follow.
I bought this for my 3 yr old daughter to help jump start the ABC process. Our friends were amazed. After two times reading the book she started forming the letters using the cutouts on her own. A week later she was at lunch with her mother in restaurant shaping letters out of the crayons and silverware on the table. The illustrations are nicely done. It's great way to learn the ABCs.
