One of RockerTot's favorite activities is finding items in I Spy Books.
We have a few of the (very inexpensive) graded reader versions and he loves to try to find "the school bus" or "the red button" in the picture. I didn't think he was old enough to do these sorts of activities, but he begged for a book at a local store and we bought it for him for later. He brought it to me that night and I asked about an object... he found it. He was hooked.
I just wanted to share these inexpensive books because they are really helping him with his concentration and visual perception.
Here are a few links to sites with ideas for creating your own I Spy books/pages.
Official Scholastic I Spy Creator
I Spy at The Other Pages
Publish your own I Spy Book at Rookie Moms
I'm sure there are many more out there, but these are a few to get you started (if you feel so inclined).
