ביקורים הם חלק משמעותי מעולמם של פעוטות. אנחנו הולכים לביקור אצל קרובי משפחה  וחברים, ולפעמים באים לבקר אותנו. תוכלו לשוחח ולשאול: את מי הלכנו לבקר? מה עשינו בזמן הביקור? את מי נזמין אלינו הביתה?

בקצה כל עמוד מופיע איור שרומז לפגישה שמחכה בעמוד הבא. לפני שהופכים את הדף תוכלו להביט ברמז המאויר ולנחש מי מחכה לכם בעמוד הבא. תוכלו גם לשחק עם חפצים אמיתיים: לכסות חפץ כמעט לגמרי ולשאול את הפעוטות מה מסתתר מתחת לכיסוי – דובון, כובע ואולי תיק קטן? 

מה באיור?

העמוד האחרון של הספר הוא סיפור בפני עצמו ובו פרטים מאוירים רבים. אפשר לחפש באיור את מי שפגשתם לאורך הסיפור: כלב, ילדה, כובע או פרח. אפשר גם לנסות לזהות חפצים בבית של סבתא ולקרוא להם בשם: היכן הקומקום? מה תלוי על הקיר?

Why is everybody dancing? Because the State of Israel was established, and it’s a great reason to dance! Do you know how old Israel is now? How many years ago was it established?

Perhaps you would also like to dance together to the music, and dedicate a dance to someone or something that has happened.

A little advice for family reading

• Share
  • 
  • 
  • 
  • 

To make family reading enjoyable, and encourage children to read, we should choose books to which children relate and explore topics in which they are interested. Some prefer a piece of fiction, while others would want to read a story that “once was”. Whatever their favorite book may be, it would encourage them to enjoy books, while helping them to develop their imagination and creativity.

A discussion on belongings and memories

You too could look for items that remind you of past experiences: A family photo, gift you have received, or item associated with an experience you have had. Take turns introducing the object of your choice and sharing a memory relating to it.

You may want to look at the illustrations together, and compare Gal’s home and kindergarten to the area in which Grandpa Raphael lived so many years ago. Together you may enjoy imagining what your life would have been like had you lived in another place, at another time. If you happen to have old pictures documenting the roots of your own family, you could show them to your child, and try to identify your family members together, as well as the places in which they lived back then, and now.

Young children learn from enjoyable activities, such as licking honey-dripping letters. There are many ways of teaching the alphabet: you could put names and words together from various materials, cut out letters from newspapers, identify familiar letters that appear on signs and packages, play word games, and so on. The most important thing is to have fun while you learn!

Ingredients:

2/3 cup of soft butter

2/3 cup of sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

2 cups of flour

1 teaspoon of baking powder

½ teaspoon of salt

1. Whisk the butter and sugar until you get a somewhat fluffy batter. Fold in the egg and vanilla extract.
2. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder and salt.

4. Pre-heat oven to medium heat (180°C).
5. Flour your worktop and use a rolling pin to flatten your doughball. Use letter-shaped cookie cutters to cut cookies out of the dough.
6. Place the cookies on a baking pan, and bake in the oven for 10 to 12 minutes, until edges turn golden.
