The Best Part of Me - Writing Activity

 

 Activity:

Have your child pick a favorite part of themselves. Take a photo, or have the child draw the part. After they have finished, have your child write why he likes that particular part. Fun and simple writing activity. We sure enjoyed it and I loved hearing why my girls chose what they did. 

I created the page to print. Visit the link below to download and print it.
