Original Book on Book Dash: Let’s have an inside day! (opens in a new tab)- Reading
- Pause at each new activity and invite your child to name what they notice in the picture; at the ending, talk about how a busy day becomes a sleepy one.
- Themes
- Making an indoor day lively: Two children turn a rainy day indoors into a succession of games, food, dress-up, music and storytelling. The children’s smiles, energetic poses and closing celebration frame the day as enjoyable. This is a reading of the pictures and sequence, not a claim that every activity suits every household.
- Worth knowing
- The play includes jumping on a bed, hiding, running indoors and shouting; these energetic scenes may be worth discussing if you want to distinguish story play from your household rules.
